Comments:
There is no history of the memorial after 1916. It is not in subsequent inventorys. I have spoken at length to the churchwardens of 1971 when the church burnt down, and it is not believed it was in the church by then. If it was then it was lost in the fire. Over a period of 15 years every crevice of our now 3 church buildings has been searched without success. If it was moved to the Church Rooms it was lost when they were demolished, if it was moved to the Vicarage it was lost when that was converted to a care home. Every avenue of enquiry has been exhausted.
