Memorial Window

In 1925 it was decided by members of the Park Lane Chapel congregation to build an extension to the school, dedicated to the ten men who had given their lives in the Great War.

A marble tablet was excreted in the Memorial Room with the names of the fallen heroes:

Harry Fletcher
William E Bradshaw
William Darbyshire
John Brimelow
James E Hughes
Seymour Derbyshire
William Murphy
James Lomax
William Yarwood
Henry Melling

Some of these families are still associated with the Chapel.

At around the same, a stained-glass Memorial Window was commissioned and installed on the north side of the Chapel with all the ten men’s names depicted within a scroll.
