1. The Roll was found early 1991 when posters stuck on to the glass (inside and out) were removed.
2. This building was the Congregational Church, until it combined with St. George's Presbyterian Church to become the United Reformed Church, when St. George's became the main building and this church was sold. Originally the roll of honour was on the opposite wall to the plaque (M17.10)
3. The Roll was transferred to St. George’s c2000
