War Memorial added - Peabody Estate, Pimlico

A week or so ago I came across a postcard on Ebay with the title 'Unknown War Memorial'. Intrigued as to where it might be I bought the postcard thinking that it might prove an interesting little research project.

On studying the postcard it quickly became apparent that a common thread for these soldiers was their place of residence; in a large number of cases CWGC showed them to have lived on the Peabody Estate in Pimlico.

Last week I was able to visit this estate after a trip with a pal to the nearby National Army Museum. We were delighted that the memorial was on the first block we came across. The postcard, a photograph and a transcription of the war memorial are now online here.
