War Memorial - Mentmore Road
The
Linslade War Memorial was originally located at the junction of Old
Road, Leighton Road and Wing Road in Linslade (as shown in the old
postcard photo to the right). However, due to the increasing levels
of traffic at this junction, the memorial was moved in 1955 to its
current location of the Memorial Gardens, Mentmore Road, Linslade.
The Inscription on the memorial reads as follows:
1914 - 1918
To the memory of the men of Linslade who gave their lives for the
Country in the Great War
