There is a brass plaque of those who served in the Great War at the main foyer in Coatbridge College. Once I get enough posts I'll upload a photo of it.

I was passing the college today and got some pictures. My thanks to the Deputy Principal who allowed me to take these shots.

The college was formerly known as Coatbridge Technical School so I have amended the thread title.

This memorial is not listed on UKNIWM. It is also in very good condition which means it's very difficult to photograph. Especially on a day as sunny as it was today...

I've been sent a much clearer image of this plaque but won't be posting it due to the Photobucket logos slapped across everything.

Anyone who wants a copy - let me know.

It comes courtesy of John McCann, https://coatbridgeandthegreatwar.com/

The Airdrie and Coatbridge Advertiser of 26 June 1915 p.5 has a Roll of Hour for the Coatbridge Technical School and Mining College.

It includes the name LOUIS TOURNOY who was serving with the Belgian Flying Corps which explains why I couldn't find him on CWGC!

Many thanks for this information, I searched a bit but could find no connection with Coatbridge, I have a better quality image but can't figure out how to add it here.[/img]
