Holy Trinity - Clapham - WW1 names

Inscription

{Each plaque is headed:}
The glorious dead, 1914 – 1919

{The list of names is held in a single alphabetical column across the two plaques, 68 names on the first and 70 on the second. For the names see Subjects commemorated.}
 

 

Apart from the actual names the two plaques are the same. Our photo shows the one on the left.

Site: Holy Trinity Church, Clapham Common (5 memorials)

SW4, Rookery Road, Clapham Common

The two plaques containing the list of WW1 names are in the porch at the west end, either side of the entrance.  The blue plaque to Wilberforce is also in the porch, above the door to the right.  The plaque to the Clapham Sect is on the right, south, side of the church; the plaque to Manor House School is on the left side.

Some amazing research work has been done on this and other Clapham memorials.
