Radcliffe Cenotaph, seen shortly after the Service of Remembrance which, as is traditional, was held on the Sunday nearest to Armistice Day http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remembrance_Sunday. It was built in 1922 as a memorial to those killed in “the war to end all wars”. Like other such memorials, it now honours casualties from all conflicts since the First World War. The memorial is a grade II* listed structure.
