West Midlands | Sutton Coldfield | War Memorial

![]() | The memorial is located in front of the town hall/council house. Phil Duggan very kindly sent me this scan from a 1920s postcard, and a photocopy of the Order of Service for the unveiling of the memorial on November 1st (All Saints Day) 1922. Since this photo was taken, the chain links around the base have been removed (probably in a scrap drive during WW II), and the names of the WW II dead have been added. |
The following list of the names of the World War I dead is transcribed from the listing in the Order of Service.
