Monument

PC Keith Blakelock

Erection date: 1986

Inscription

Here served PC Keith Blakelock, 16 March 1981 to 6 October 1985.
{Below is the badge of the Metropolitan Police.}

This memorial used to be at the police station where PC Blakelock served, nearby at 115 Fortis Green, but when that was closed the memorial was relocated here. That station also apparently contained a memorial to PC Nat Edgar, who was shot in 1948 but we have no information as to its whereabouts.
