Comments:
This Memorial is now appalling, its in danger of collapsing, it has a major crack on the right hand side of the Memorial, a third of the way up, it also shows up at the back of the Memorial, the concrete facing over the brick structure is falling off making it impossible to read the lettering. It has deteriorated very badly in the las three years, also in danger of toppling over. .The lettering is now unreadable. Very neglected. This is seriously in danger. and will need urgent attention.
