This site is dedicated to those men and women who fell fighting for their country. Recorded here are various war memorials within a variety of counties, it is fully intended to complete as many war memorials in the United Kingdom as possible. The counties and the war memorials completed for each are listed on a separate page. Photographs have been taken of the majority of the memorials, details of the men included and their photographs where possible. All counties are based on the pre-1974 reorganisation of the political divisions in the United Kingdom. The main sections have a menu at the top of the page of sections that are available, these are on drop down lists. A site map has been provided as well.
4   Link   North East War Memorials Project
The 20th century, the bloodiest century in world history, twice saw the horrors of global warfare. Our local War Memorials remind us of what happened, and the consequences for many people in the Region. They tell the story of those who fought, those who died, and those left behind to cope with the confusion which followed.
5   Link   War Memorials in Leicester
This website combines information from several main sources and many, many smaller
ones, often individuals working in their own parish.
The Leicestershire County Council’s contribution to this comes from its interest in working with the Armed Services group and its unique position of having countywide responsibilities, ICT expertise and a Historic and Natural Environment Team which looks after the county’s Historic Environment Record and provides support for the Heritage and Archaeology Wardens’ networks.
The largest comprehensive source is that supplied by Michael Doyle and his five (soon to be six) volume work: “Their Name Liveth for Evermore - The Great War Roll of Honour for Leicestershire & Rutland” published privately in 2009.
