Here are Newhaven's three War Memorials, now all standing together at the junction of Southway and Bridge Street.
Andy, I know the one that used to stand at the Dacre Road junction was moved to the harbourside many years ago. Has the one from Chapel Street/Fort Road been moved as well? Where did the third one come from?
Yes, it was moved a few years ago. The Canadian memorial is much more recent than the other two, not sure of the exact date. I'm sure someone will know.
For the Canadian one I would suggest 1982, as being the 60th anniversary of the Dieppe Raid.
I remember my Dad, John Chapman, laying the wreath at the Canadian Memorial in the late 1980s until he and my Mum moved to Yorkshire.
