Plaque at Queen Elizabeth's Community College (the old hall of the 1860 Grammar School building) transcribed by Dr Michael J. Fennessy in 2006
One Board lists those who lost their lives in the two wars of the 20th Century. All persons are male, presumably all ex-pupils. Highly abbreviated text to right of each name refers to "regiment" or branch of the military in which the men served.
Full details of the memorial (including a photograph and its exact location) can be accessed by downloading the data file from the CMIAR website.
