Inscription

These gates were erected in memory of Colonel E. D. Miller, CBE, DSO, DL, 17th Lancers of Spring Hill, Rugby, Harrovian, soldier, sportsman, by his many friends and admirers from all over the world.

Site: Harrow School - Miller gates + Grenfell terraces (3 memorials)

HA1, Church Hill

The gate piers with the urns, that can be seen in our photo, each have a plaque on the other, north facing, side. These are only visible from the large tarmaced area between them and the school building. In our photo the Grenfell terraces plaque can be seen just below the central balustrade.
