Tragically sad to see a memorial who lost their lives in WW1/WW2 in such a poor state. The Cenotaph itself is most growing green, this doesn't happen over night. Its been like this for a long time. The pavement around the glass memorial was lethal. It was so slippery due to the algae and moss growing on it, again not happened overnight was dangerous for anyone, but mostly the elderly. This wouldn't take much for a team to come out with a jet wash and clean it up . I'm sure everyone would agree this is not the right way to respect our fallen who gave everything so we could have our today.
….At the going down of the Sun and, in the morning, we SHALL remember them. Please be respectful of this place and review it for what it stands for. They gave their lives so we could have ours. Posting derogatory comments about the surroundings is not helpful and vitriolic.
Was here a few weeks ago in Southampton to take a cruise. Had some time to walk around the city. A memorial to those lives lost in wars is necessary reminder for future generations.
История этого мемориала уходит в далекий 1918 год. Изначально там должно было быть около 2000 имен жителей города Саутгемптона, которые погибли в Первой Мировой войне. Но потом в городскую администрацию начали приходить письма, чтобы добавили еще имена. Ассоциация Королевского британского легиона и торгового флота оказала помощь в составлении списков имен за период 1914-1918 и 1939-1945 года. Общее количество имен Великой войны на Мемориальной стене составляет 2368.
Respect to the heroes of First World War. memorial designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens and located in Watts Park in the southern English city of Southampton.
A very well attended centenary memorial service at the Cenotaph. Complimented very well by the contemporary glass walls of remembrance.
