CROWLAND WAR MEMORIAL

World War 1 & 2 & Malaya - Roll of Honour with detailed information
Compiled and Copyright © Jonathan Smith 2007

The Crowland War Memorial stands in a wide section of East Street, between the town’s famous Triangular Bridge and Abbey remains. The dedication, together with three granite plaques containing the names of 66 village men (including four from the same family and four awarded the Military Medal) who did not return from the conflict are affixed to the square monument. A further granite plaque below the dedication contains the 17 names of soldiers who fell in the Second World War, together with one soldier killed in 1951 in Malaya.

This memorial was erected in grateful memory of the men from the parish who made the supreme sacrifice in the Great War 1914-1918
