In Dec 2020 I did a 200km audax visiting as many war memorials in Hertfordshire as I could. Think I visited 45 memorials but I’d need to check all the photos.Unfortunately for this thread very few photos show my bike in them.

Here is one for @Juan Kog

It’s a Town centre WM and it’s raining, but not one recognise . I tend to steer clear of town centres .
Thats not an invitation to post lots of Hertfordshire village War memorials.
[EDIT] Oh no you’ve started already.

Big war memorials are not uncommon in France. Most date from World War One and Two, some from the Franco- Prussian War and occasionally one from French Indo-China or Algeria. But it took a few moments to register that this one is to Jean the Blind of Luxemburg who died at the Battle of Crecy in 1346 - a full ten years after loosing his sight.
