Stockwell Green United Reformed Church memorial found

posted 27 Aug 2009 09:09 by Naomi Klein   [ updated 6 Nov 2009 03:55 by Bathsheba Everdene ]
This war memorial was once displayed in the Stockwell Green United Reformed Church but was removed when the church was sold in 1991. It is currently kept in the basement of the crematorium of West Norwood cemetery. I have contacted the URC to suggest that another home is found for it.
