The war memorial sits on the edge of Station Road in the churchyard of St Marys Church. It lists the names of 28 men from the First World War and 10 men from the Second World War. The first meeting to discuss the possibility of erecting a war memorial occurred on the 16 August 1919 in the Assembly Rooms. It was agreed that a memorial be erected to include a Roll of Honour, and that if funds permit a village memorial hall should also be provided. The churchyard site was the most favoured position for the memorial, and it was also suggested that the Assembly Rooms be purchased to become the Village Hall. A committee was formed to report back with details. On the 8 November 1919 a public meeting was held and the committee produced its report. They recommended that a Celtic cross be made from Cornish granite, to a design by Mr Stallwood, architect of Reading. The cost would be in the region of £200. The cross design is based on the ancient Cornish Crosses at Lanivet and Cardinham. The cross stands 15ft tall, and was carved by Messrs J. Freeman & Sons of Penryn, Cornwall from granite excavated from the Maen Pearn quarry in Constantine, Cornwall. The dedication service for the memorial took place on Sunday 14 November 1920. The church was full, with extra seating provided, and it was estimated that over 500 people massed outside the church during the service. I am a new, amateur historian and have tried very hard to ensure that the information I have gathered and produced is as accurate as possible. Many records, including the majority of First World War service records, were destroyed during the London bombings of the Second World War. I have therefore used various archives, newspaper articles and internet sites, with their own discrepancies, to confirm my findings. If there are errors in my work it is not intentional on my part and I hope not to cause any offence. Photos of soldiers are courtesy of Reading Borough Central Library. 2 Albert George Evans Rank: Corporal 9578 Regiment: 1st Battalion Royal Berkshire Regiment Brigade/ Division: 6th Brigade, 2nd Division Albert Evans was born in Shinfield, Berkshire in 1895, the son of Frederick Evans of 7 The Grove Cottages, Twyford. Albert joined the 1st Battalion, Royal Berkshire Regiment before the outbreak of war. The Battalion was stationed in Aldershot when war was declared on 4 August 1914. On 11 August the Battalion was inspected by the King and Queen, before leaving Aldershot by train the following day. The Battalion left Southampton on two boats on the afternoon of 12 August arriving in Rouen on 13 August. After the fighting withdrawal from Mons the Battalion was stationed at La Metz Ferme from 15 September. On 18 September 1914 the War Diary of the 1st Battalion states “light attack by Germans at 8:30pm, 8 other ranks wounded”. It does not record any deaths on the day. On 19 September La Metz Ferme was destroyed by shell fire killing 8 and wounding 35 men, Albert Evans was likely one of these killed.* Albert Evans was killed in action aged 21 on the 18 or 19 September 1914, he has no known grave but is commemorated on the La Ferte-sous-Jouarre memorial, France. Awarded the 1914 Star, British War Medal and the Victory Medal. *The Commonwealth War Graves Commission has the date of Albert Evans death as 18 September 1914 and killed in action. There are no deaths recorded in the Battalion’s War Diary for 18 September. If a soldier died of his wounds in a field hospital he is very likely to have a recorded grave. However, deaths were recorded for 19 September, and it is my opinion that evidence points to Albert being one of those killed in action on the 19 September 1914. 3 Henry George Franklin Rank: Corporal 15466 Regiment: 1st Battalion, Grenadier Guards Brigade/ Division: 20th Brigade, 7th Division Henry George Franklin was born in Twyford in 1890, the eldest child of George and Elizabeth Franklin of London Road and later Waltham Road, Twyford. From an early age Henry worked for his father’s coal merchants. Henry joined with the 1st Battalion Grenadier Guards sometime before the war. Shortly after war was declared on 4 August 1914, the Battalion moved from London to Lyndhurst, Hampshire to join the rest of 20th Brigade of the 7th Division. On 6 October 1914 the Battalion sailed from Southampton landing at Zeebrugge the next day. Upon landing the Battalion was tasked with holding strategic bridges allowing the Belgian army to evacuate westward. After this the 1st Battalion marched west and the first group of British troops to entrench in front of Ypres. On 29 October 1914 at 5:30am, on a foggy morning, German artillery began its bombardment beginning the First Battle of Ypres. The German infantry moved forward and engaged the Black Watch and Coldstream Guard units. By 6:30am the enemy had broken through the line. The reserve companies of the Black Watch and Coldstream moved to hold the line. By 7:30 the fog had lifted giving the British infantry better visibility,

    From: Sent: 27 March 2020 11:36 To: [email protected] Subject: GE202003362 - ONR resposne to Wokingham Borough Council Local plan Update Follow Up Flag: Follow up Flag Status: Completed Dear Sir/Madam, In response to your emails dated 3 February and 18 March regarding the 2020 Wokingham Borough Local Plan Update consultation, please find below ONR’s response, which is provided in line with our Land Use Planning policy published here http://www.onr.org.uk/land-use-planning.htm. Since ONR responded to the previous draft Local Plan Update consultation on 21 January 2019 (see email below) the proposed development locations included in the draft local plan have significantly changed. Additionally, the Detailed Emergency Planning Zone (DEPZ) for the AWE Burghfield site has been re-determined by West Berkshire District Council under the Radiation (Emergency Preparedness and Public Information) Regulations (REPPIR) 2019 resulting in a larger DEPZ. ONR’s current position remains that we would be likely to object to: • developments within the DEPZ, unless the West Berkshire District Council emergency planner provides adequate assurance to ONR that any adverse impact on the operability and viability of the off-site emergency plan could be mitigated. • large scale developments within the circular 5km Outer Consultation Zone (OCZ), which extends beyond the DEPZ from grid reference SU684680, unless the West Berkshire District Council emergency planner provides adequate assurance to ONR that any adverse impact on the operability and viability of the off-site emergency plan could be mitigated. ONR has previously responded regarding the two development locations below which are included in both the 2018/19 Local Plan Update consultation and the 2020 Local Plan Update consultation: 1.

Rustin passed away July, 2008. His wife considered him a genius regarding military history. He was a brilliant writer, a former reporter, manager and assistant chief of the New York news bureau. He edited coverage at the heart of the Wall Street Journal’s financial and economic news operations. He served in the U. S. Navy as an officer from 1956 to 1959.

  • TWICE a CITIZEN Celebrating a Century of Service by the Territorial Army in London
    TWICE A CITIZEN Celebrating a century of service by the Territorial Army in London www.TA100.co.uk The Reserve Forces’ and Cadets’ Association for Greater London Twice a Citizen “Every Territorial is twice a citizen, once when he does his ordinary job and the second time when he dons his uniform and plays his part in defence.” This booklet has been produced as a souvenir of the celebrations for the Centenary of the Territorial Field Marshal William Joseph Slim, Army in London. It should be remembered that at the time of the formation of the Rifle Volunteers 1st Viscount Slim, KG, GCB, GCMG, GCVO, GBE, DSO, MC in 1859, there was no County of London, only the City. Surrey and Kent extended to the south bank of the Thames, Middlesex lay on the north bank and Essex bordered the City on the east. Consequently, units raised in what later became the County of London bore their old county names. Readers will learn that Londoners have much to be proud of in their long history of volunteer service to the nation in its hours of need. From the Boer War in South Africa and two World Wars to the various conflicts in more recent times in The Balkans, Iraq and Afghanistan, London Volunteers and Territorials have stood together and fought alongside their Regular comrades. Some have won Britain’s highest award for valour - the Victoria Cross - and countless others have won gallantry awards and many have made the ultimate sacrifice in serving their country. This booklet may be recognised as a tribute to all London Territorials who have served in the past, to those who are currently serving and to those who will no doubt serve in the years to come.
