Site: PC Patrick Dunne - SW8 (1 memorial)

SW8, Wandsworth Road, Durrington Tower

PC Dunne was killed in Cato Road (near Clapham North tube) so this memorial is not at the site of his death, where there is another memorial. Perhaps these flats are where he lived. The text refers to a tree but there is not one nearby. Either the memorial has been moved or the tree did not survive.
