Talwrn War Memorials

Anglesey, Talwrn War Memorial and Village Green.

Talwrn on the Island of Anglesey is a quiet small village in a very rural location. The War Memorial is located on the village green, clearly visible from the main road by anyone passing on foot or in a vehicle. In recent years it has been improved by the inclusion of new seats and a path.

The information regarding the individuals is incomplete on the memorial so it is difficult to trace their details exactly, but I have attempted to in the table below.
