War 1 & 2 - Roll of Honour with detailed information
Compiled and Copyright © 2004 - Martin Edwards
The
memorial stands on the main Finedon Road that runs through Irthlingborough.
The World War 2 names are on the top level and World War 1 on the
bottom. There are several duplications of surname and initial for
World War 1 and two entries that appear on two separate panels out
of sequence which appear to be in error as they are the last two
names on one plate and the first two names on the next plate.
