Snapped up these postcards of what looks to be two different events at nearby Seal. First a military funeral, and later the unveiling of the war memorial. Needs some more research but an interesting glimpse of the Great War in the village.

Any WW2 researchers follow me? I’ve had the enquiry below but not my specialism and have offered to help connect them with someone who can: I know that he was involved in North Africa through to occupation in Germany, we believe in Artillery & perhaps Medical, & he was at Arnhem

Lovely visit to the church of St Peter & St Paul at Charing in Kent today. An impressive roof, and fine memorials inside, including a roll of honour and a memorial board from the Great War, and a tablet commemorating men of the Tank Regiment from the second.

I’m in danger of turning this into a church visiting account. It’s becoming another hobby, but in the churches of Kent there’s always a purpose: war memorials, a roll of honour, and in some cases, a war grave. Yesterday I went to Hollingbourne, a little further on from Maidstone

Brilliant tour of @cwgc Sevenoaks Greatness Cemetery for our lovely South East volunteers by 7OaksWW1, followed by the obligatory tea, cake and chat. What more could you ask for on a Saturday afternoon?
