About the memorial: Stone tablet on the side wall of the Mission. There has always been a Mission at this location but it was totally rebuilt in 1994. It is the only Chapel attached to a RNLI station in the United Kingdom. In WW1 the Merchant Marine was commonly called the Mercantile Marine, but the phrase Merchantile Marine used on this tablet is grammatically more correct, and in any event is what they have chosen to use. It does not therefore require amendment. Although the Mission is not named on Google maps the pin location is accurate.
