The above photo is from a postcard in my collection, I assume it dates from before the Second World War as there are no names from that war.

Four names were added after the Second War along with the following inscription:

 

And of those who died

to defend us in the 2nd World War

1939 - 1945

 

May They Rest in Peace

Amen
