Ilderton

 

Location:  Middlesex County     N 43 04.678   W 81 23.180
On the north side of Ilderton Road, at the entrance to the Arena/fairgrounds.
 

This memorial is sponsored by Royal Canadian Legion Branch 531, which is located nearby.  The granite stone pays tribute to the major wars of the 1900's and lists the names of those lost from this community.  Although only a short distance from the City of London, Ilderton has always maintained a rural feel to it, largely being a farming centre until the recent encroachment of the city has turned this busy village into a bedroom community.
