Watford Fields: The War Memorial

Image: © Nigel Cox Taken: 20 Dec 2009

Located outside the former Church of St James each panel of the War Memorial records the names of about twenty men who gave their lives in the First World War. This is an extraordinary number when you consider the comparatively small size of the neighbourhood of terraced houses that would have existed at that time.
