Notes

Place: Witton Cemetery, The Ridgeway, about 2.5 km south of Kingstanding Circle. It was the nearest municipal cemetery to the estate. Confirmed by Geograph. Relevance: service personnel who died in Britain were buried in their home cemeteries. The sibling dossier's CWGC list (cwgc_ww2_military_local.csv) identifies Kingstanding and Perry Common service dead. Check which of them are on these panels before claiming a link. The 1940 civilian dead of Hurlingham Road, Oundle Road and Kingstanding Road are commemorated in the CWGC Civilian War Dead roll, not on this wall. This is a modern photograph (2012) of a memorial. No war memorial inside the Kingstanding estate could be confirmed online: the IWM War Memorials Register search returned no records, and the St Luke's hits turned out to be other St Luke's churches.
