About the memorial: According to the church website the village is Hinton Martel, but according to wikipedia and google it is Martell*. The list on names is on the noticeboard in the porch but is too flimsy to qualify as a memorial in itself. There is also what might be a temporary memorial in the porch, which I have entered separately. *Hinton Martell is one of the many villages in England where the Ecclesiastical name differs from the local government name - the name of the church is spelt with only one “L”. This is due to the assiduous work of Rev. William Barnard who campaigned for the restoration of the medieval spelling of Martell (without the second ‘L’), to align it with that of the town in France, from whence the ancient Martel family hailed.
