An exhibition to commemorate the men from Stoodleigh who died in the First World War

 

If you go into St Margaret's Church you will see an oak panel in the porch which commemorates:

"those of the parish and estate who laid down their lives and of those who served in the Great War"

There are sixty four names on the panel, of whom seven died.

This exhibition tries to tell something of the lives of those who died and  their families' lives.
