Hi littlehand

I do not have a photograph of the memorial but
The memorial is to be found on the top staircase of the Lord’s pavilion and takes the form of a nowy-headed wooden board with gold lettering that is accompanied by a framed print giving details of membership, date elected, date of death and place of burial. The club emblem can be found at the top of the board. There are 330 names listed.

1914-1918

OF THE MEMBERS OF THE MCC
