Well kept memorial in a beautiful cobbled square in the town. Wonderful to see a union jack flying from a flagpole next to it. Several beautiful planters are full of blooms dotted around the square. A really peaceful place to remember those that gave their lives so we can live free of tyranny....
Lovely Old Coaching Town of Boroughbridge. Half way twixt London and Edinburgh.
