By the time we moved it the writing was barely readable. It was a fun early morning, all our faces dropped when it came apart. The money came from a local benefactor. He gave us 10,000 pounds. We tried to buy a shop front that came up for sale, but the York museum got it, the shop front came from Brentford. We then decided to move the memorial in time for the 350th aniversary of the English Civil War. We did put a plaque on the floor explaining it was moved and restored to celebrate the Battle of Brentford, I must check it when I’m over late next month. |
