Attended a the christening of my granddaughter at this church, Coincidently really close to
where I used to live. I suspect the names of these fallen could also be on the St Annes and
Lytham memorials. But I am not sure. This memorial is quite well hidden
on the right hand side of the aisle in a dark side of the church. The
first image is of the memorial, the others are pictures of the church.
The church tower is a financial liability, there is always a possibility
that it may have to be demolished. I will publish more pictures of the
memorial in due course.
