Photograph at the Blackpool War Memorial blue plaque

The War Memorial (Grade II Listed) A small temporary memorial dedicated to the fallen in the Great War was erected here in 1919. It was replaced by the present monument which was unveiled on Armistice Day, the 11th November 1923. Today it is dedicated to those who fell in battle in both World Wars and subsequent conflicts. Kindly donated by Fylde Ex-Service Liaison Committee.
