|
|
Not listed on UKNIWM
Located in Sorbie Parish Church at OS Map Ref NX 468 463.
The roll of honour is the only memorial in the church and hangs inside the vestry. It is very difficult to read but the names can be made out from the high res original photos - please PM me if you would like copies.
The heading reads 'Sorbie Parish, Roll of Honour, of Great War 1914 - 1918 - 1939 - 1945'. The WW2 dates are in a different script and have obviously been added later. The WW1 names of those who died are marked with a small cross inside a circle. The 1939 - 1945 names are only of those who died. There is also a Korean War death which has been added.

The minister told me that this Roll of Honour is brought into the main body of the church for remembrance services.
