Queens Lancashire Regiment Memorial at the National Arboretum
QLR Memorial finally unveiled
After a nine-month delay forced by the Coronavirus emergency, it was a great to finally install our bronze plaque as part of the memorial for the QLR at the National Memorial Arboretum, the nation’s year-round centre for remembrance.
The memorial, the result of an extraordinary and monumental fund-raising effort, commemorates The Queen’s Lancashire Regiment, and those that served in the fine and proud county regiment.
It was due to be unveiled in March before the largest gathering of former members of the Regiment since it was amalgamated in 2006, but the Coronavirus outbreak forced a delay in completion and postponement of the unveiling.
Installation was completed in December 2020, ready for a re-organised official dedication ceremony, hopefully to be held later in 2021 once it is safe to do so.
It was a great honour to work on the project.
