Description
EN
The purpose of the “Lest we forget….” series is to take a moment out of our busy lives to remember those who fell fighting for our country.
The memorial stands in front of the Library on Mount Pleasant Road, Tunbridge Wells. It has a low wall surrounding a central memorial with the figure of a soldier holding a rifle mounted on a plinth.
The memorial was unveiled and dedicated 11th February 1923; the sculptor was Mr Stanley Nicholson Babb.
On June 9, 2011 British Heritage gave the monument a Grade II listing.
The memorial, because of its size has been split into alphabetical sections. World War 1 and World War 2 names are listed separately and within these groupings the names are listed in alphabetical sections.
