A memorial in the lovely village of Blockley, to remember those who have fallen from the village in:

Second World War (1939-1945) and

Lest We Forget
Blockley village developed as a mill town during the 9th Century, using the reliable, spring-fed streams to power the 12 water mills later recorded in the Domesday Book. The mills were variously used for grain, timber, cider, flax, wool and silk over the years. After their boom years during the first half of the 19th Century, they went into relatively rapid decline with the collapse of the local silk trade.
