Sutton-in-Ashfield - War Memorial on Downing Street

This is one of two war memorials in Sutton-in-Ashfield. This one was originally sited in the churchyard of St Michael and All Angels Church on Outram Street (see Image). When that church became redundant, the memorial was moved to its current location in the apex formed by the junction of Downing Street with Mansfield Road. It displays the names of the casualties of the 1914-18 war who lived within the area of the St Michael and All Angels Church parish. The other war memorial is in Sutton-in-Ashfield Cemetery (next to St Mary's Church on Lammas Road). For a photo of this, please see Alan Murray-Rust's Image This memorial shows the casualties from both the 1914-18 and 1939-45 wars.
