Inscription

Metropolitan Police

Site: Lord Trenchard (5 memorials)

SW1, Victoria Embankment, Victoria Embankment Gardens - Whitehall section

The building behind is the former Air Ministry.  We thank Jamie Davis for finding of the unveiling.  Laid into the platform are four bronze badges, anti-clockwise: RAF, RSF, Met Police, WAFF.  They are rather fine so we have treated each one as a memorial.
