Site: London Troops memorial - Fulham (3 memorials)

SW6, Putney Bridge Approach, Vicarage Gardens

See the Fulham monument for more info on this garden.

On this wall are attached 3 memorials: two large stone panels (one for each world war, with WW2 on the left) flanking a bronze plaque which is the London Troops War Memorial, in plaque form. The unveiling details given on the bronze plaque are identical to those on the full-size memorial.

On both stone panels the names are in 4 columns, in alphabetical sequence. However on the WW1 panel each column has 5-7 names at the bottom in random sequence. By WW2 they'd got better organised, or just delayed the memorial for longer, since there are no late additions.
