More about this scene

Here we can see the war memorial at the junction of High Street, Wollaston Road and Farndish Road, with steps leading up to the tall monument surmounted by a cross. There is an additional poignant plaque at its foot commemorating an air raid on 20th May 1941, in which nine villagers were killed. Beyond are 1890s houses, now unpleasantly re-windowed.
