Notes:

1. This church was formerly the Primitive Methodist Church. For a while, the building was used as a warehouse. Then the three Methodist (High Street Wesleyan and Percy Street) churches united to become Trinity Methodist. The church underwent (1998-2000) a complete refurbishment.

2. This plaque has now been placed below A13.08 so that it creates a single memorial for both wars.
