About the memorial: The Hall of Memory with the Porte Cochere (covered porch) was built as an extension to the Hospital in 1924 and opened by HRH the Duke of York (King George VI). There are bronze plaques within the Hall of Memory and are what are described as the Tamworth and District War Memorial. They are so-called because 2 of the 3 plaques list the names of all the 608 fallen of the Borough and surrounding villages in the District.
