The war memorial can be seen in our photo.  All three plaques are clustered at the corner of the building closest to our camera. The Montefiore foundation stone is also visible, one side of it, in the close-up photograph of the war memorial. We thank Colin Burducea, S&P Community, for generously providing most of our close-up photographs and answering our queries.
