War Memorials Trust case: War Memorials Trust needs to avoid Contributors changing location/description details as we help to protect and conserve this war memorial through our casework. You can still add photographs, update condition and use the tabs below. If you believe any of the information you cannot edit is wrong or information is missing, please make a note of the reference number and include it in your email when you contact us.

Status: Lost/missing
Type: Non freestanding
Location: Internal
Setting: Inside a building - public/private
Description: Board/Plaque/ Tablet
Materials:
  • Metal Brass
Lettering: Inscribed on a plaque
Conflicts:
  • First World War (1914-1918)
About the memorial: Two brass plaques (390mm wide x 430mm high) with the inscription 'This tablet was erected to the glory of God and in affectionate remembrance of those who fighting fell in the Great War 1914-1918' with 20 names on the second plaque. In 2004, War Memorials Trust was contacted about the possible relocation of these war memorials from their original location in the Riverside Christian Centre on Machen Place in Cardiff to the Cathays Cemetery Chapel in Cardiff due to the closure of the Christian Centre. A visit to the cemetery chapel in 2013 found another memorial plaque originally from the Riverside Christian Centre (WMO 158047) but not these brass plaques so they are assumed missing/lost.
