There are literally thousands of War memorials around the country. WW1 Memorials were usually raised through public subscription to remember those that gave the ultimate sacrifice. This year 2014 is also the centenary of the start of the First World War it's about time there was a series dedicated to War Memorials. There is an un-numbered series in Scotland called Lest we forget. The name of this series We Shall remember them, was chosen from the very moving poem “For the Fallen” by Laurence Binyon. It is well worth searching out and reading.”
This War memorial was erected In memory of the Miners of Wearmouth Colliery who gave their lives for their country in The Great War 1914-1919.
It is located in the grounds of Wearmouth Colliery Sports and Social Club.
