Local historians have been researching the names of those men who were killed in the First World War and are remembered on the All Saints war memorial. As part of the church’s wider activities for Heritage week, there will be a display on twelve of these men, produced by researchers. For each there will be details of their early lives, including their military service and links to the church. They include the Cartland brothers and three local men who died when the ship HMS Royal Edward was sunk in the Mediterranean. Many famous regiments, including the Royal Warwickshire Regiment, are represented on the memorial.
The display focusses on twelve of the fallen but the researchers will also have details, which can be viewed, of all of those included on the memorial.
