A fitting memorial

Being a Tuesday Margaret Mills returned to tell us about an unusual First World War memorial at Dollyman’s Farm, Rawreth, close to Wickford.

The memorial was to commemorate the lives of two airman  – Captain Henry Stroud, who was buried in Rochford  and Captain Alexander Kynoch who’s final resting place was in Finchley where his family lived.

The two men died when both of their planes crashed in bad weather just before the end of the war  – in March 1918.

Listen again here to what Margaret told me today: –

I’ll see you once again next week,
