Lloyds TSB War Memorial

Inscription

{On the front stone:}
We will remember them

{On the back stone:}
In remembrance of all employees of the Lloyds TSB Group who have given their lives in times of conflict

{on the stone on which the two stones stand:}
For your tomorrow we gave our today

This is a small, simple monument, placed at pavement level, not raised on a plinth. Despite this, it has a dignity and gravitas that many grander monuments fail to achieve.

The quotation "For your tomorrow ..." comes from Edmonds.
