Site: Armenian Genocide (1 memorial)

W5, Ealing Green

2009-10 there were ructions at Ealing Council as Armenian factions promoted the creation of this memorial and Turkish factions opposed. Flickr has some photos of the dedication ceremony. The tree was planted in April 2010 but the plaque came later, in April 2011.
