Enhancing Community Remembrance 2020, Dudley MBC

This is a project to enhance and develop the war memorial at Upper Gornal, by creating a new wall around it which will incorporate the names of the fallen on granite panels (which are currently located inside a closed church in Upper Gornal and will be relocated into this public memorial). The project also includes LED lighting to enhance the war memorial. The community wants to ensure that the granite panels are not lost and remain accessible to the public and that the fallen soldiers continue to be remembered. The project also entails planted beds (to be maintained by volunteers). An interpretation panel will provide insight into the life, conditions and times of those lost in the second world war.
