Blackmore's War Memorial is now being cleaned and re-engraved.
A project has identified all those recorded - both fallen and survivors.
If you have
an ancestor from Blackmore and the neighbourhood who served in the
First World War, Second World War or subsequent conflicts we would be
particularly pleased to hear from you. |
