Stockwell War Memorial


The panels of the clock tower list the names of 574 local men who were killed in the First World War. Behind the tower is a circular ventilation shaft for a deep-level Second World War air-raid shelter, which later housed a troop of American soldiers. It is now decorated with a local history mural, created by Ben Barnes with Stockwell children.
