Tottenham

 
Location:  N 44° 01.381 W 079° 48.064  In Keogh Park, on Mill Street east.


A granite statue and shaft, erected in 1920. Lists the names of all local men to lose their lives fighting in the two World Wars and Korea.  Classic looking memorial, located in Keogh Park. Surrounded by well kept gardens and lawns, also playgrounds and tennis courts.
Outstanding statue of a WWI soldier looks out over the park in deep wonder.
The inscriptions are very difficult to read, even close up. The names have weathered poorly over the years and need to be re-cut before they are lost forever.
