The National Memorial Arboretum

I may be visiting the NMA next month,if my daughter keeps her promise to take her old Mum there.

Would anyone like me to take a picture of a particular memorial ? I’m not the world’s greatest photographer,but I can point and click with the best :diablo:

Here’s a list of memorials. Drop me a pm before the end of the month if there’s anything that interests you.

Well,baby Bee kept her promise on a chilly wet Mother’s Day.
Here are a few of the photos I took,starting with the WAAF and Royal Auxiliary Air Force memorials,as her grandparents served in them.

A wonderful place to visit again and again.

It’s a great place, and like Kev says, a day just isn’t enough.

Anne.

You’ll love it. It’s the place I escape to when I have time and it is constantly changing, evolving and growing. It really is wonderful and the more I learn as I research various things means that some of the Memorials are becoming quite important and significant to me. A case in point being the Memorials to those on the Burma and Sumatra railways, the COFEPOW Building and the lych gate from Changi. Polish Memorial is very striking too.

You’ll find your own highlights. If you need a guide let me know but don’t expect to do it all in one day.

Regards,
