Spondon War Memorial

Details of the war memorial tablet mounted on the wall of Spondon Library, Sitwell Street

The memorial on the library wall replaces a wooden version that was first located in the Village Hall and then moved so it was more available to the public. We are attempting to correct the erroneous version of events on the Imperial War Museum inventory. We would like to find a photo of the original wooden memorial, either when it was in the Village Hall, or when mounted on the library wall. if anybody, can help please

The war memorial tablet for the First World War, mounted in the Lady Chapel of St Werburgh's Church (pictured below) gives the same names (although not always in alphabetical order). Unlike the library memorial, they also give ranks and medals awarded.

Where the name has a link it is to the Commonwealth War Graves website entry; if unlinked, the entry has not yet been found (possibly due to transcription errors) or cannot be positively identified as the correct entry. Any corrections or other assistance will be gratefully received, please Entries with an asterisk indicate that the grave is one of the seventeen in Spondon cemetery.
