Touching Remembrance tribute at Tatworth in South Somerset.

Earlier this month, driving along the A358 in South Somerset, I passed the village of Tatworth where I saw standing beside a hedgerow a touching Remembrance tribute in the form of two figures, a soldier and a nurse, dressed in the style of the First World War.

Nearby, also beside the A358, is the imposing Church of St. John the Evangelist.  In its churchyard is a traditional war memorial commemorating Tatworth’s fallen of two world wars.  Twenty-eight names are inscribed for World War One together with the words: “IN MEMORY OF THE FALLEN / 1914-1918 / THEY DIED FOR ENGLAND”.  Five more names are inscribed for World War Two.
