The Cenotaph
The Cenotaph was built in memory of the 124 British soldiers who sacrificed their lives to fight in World War I. On 31st March 1922, the Cenotaph was unveiled by the then Prince Edward of Wales. Inscribed on the Cenotaph is: "They died that we might live." We were reminded to maintain a respectful silence when visiting the Cenotaph, to remember the soldiers who fought in war.
