NEAR THE PLAQUE ARE 29 SMALL FLAT HEADSTONES. MOST NAMES UNREADABLE BUT THOSE THAT ARE READABLE BEAR DATES OF 1944 SO ARE PROBABLY THOSE OF V1/V2 ROCKET ATTACK VICTIMS. A LIST OF THE LEGIBLE NAMES AND THE SIZES OF THE STONES (FROM MR P O'MARA) WAS ADDED TO THE FILE 3SEP2001
NOT FAR AWAY IS A PLOT CONTAINING 18 CWGC HEADSTONES FOR WW2 |
