Llanerchymedd War Memorials

Llanerchymedd War Memorial and Surround.

Llanerchymedd is on the Isle of Anglesey in North Wales. Despite being in a rural location, the town itself is and was quite populous (in Anglesey terms). The War Memorial is located to the edge of the town.

If you have any photographs or stories of any of these casualties I would be delighted to receive high res copies, or even come and photograph them – I wouldn’t even have to take them away.

I have done my best to find out a little more information on the people on the War Memorial. There are also some names that are not on the memorial that maybe should have been.
