About the memorial: Originally a stone shrine outside St George's Church, exact form unknown, dedicated 14th June 1919. St George's Church stood at the junction of St George's Road and Knoll Road, but was demolished in 1971. The 6 name panels plus central dedication panel of the Shrine were taken to St Michael's Church, and later transferred to Caird Hall. They were displayed at Surrey Heath Museum in 2016 (see photos). According to the Museum website (see Link), the stones are currently (2023) back in store at St Michael's. St Michael's also has a set of replacement stones, which are on display in the porch (WMO/288907).
