EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures the Tunbridge Wells War Memorial, a solemn and poignant tribute to the brave soldiers who gave their lives in service of their country. Standing proudly in front of the Town Hall/Library on Mount Pleasant, this magnificent monument was unveiled and dedicated on 11th February 1923 by the talented sculptor Mr Stanley Nicholson Babb. The memorial features a soldier standing tall with his rifle, symbolizing the sacrifice and heroism of those who fought for freedom. Surrounding him are beautiful floral tributes, including wreaths and flowers laid as a mark of remembrance for the glorious dead. In recognition of its historical significance and artistic value, British Heritage granted this iconic monument a Grade II listing in 2011. The photograph itself dates back to 1926, capturing a moment frozen in time from the vibrant era of the 1920s. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded not only of the sacrifices made by those who served during times of war but also of our duty to honor their memory and preserve their legacy for future generations. This print serves as a timeless reminder of courage, sacrifice, and remembrance that will forever be etched into history.
