Details
In 2018 the year that marked the centenary of the end of the First World War, a new memorial sculpture was unveiled in Featherstone to commemorate the 353 soldiers from the town that were killed.
The World War I memorial entitled War Horse, A Place of Peace To Be Together, created by internationally renowned artists Cod Steaks, is designed to create a place of peace, remembrance and reflection and is sited in a local nature reserve where 353 trees have been planted, one for each resident of Featherstone who lost their life.
