Memorial Tablet at Clifton Park Museum, Rotherham (unveiled 1903)
[The present whereabouts of this memorial is unknown but it is most likely stored somewhere in the museum - I hope!. It was originally on the wall at the bottom of the main staircase. Inscription details are from the Rotherham Advertiser of 19th Dec 1903]
This tablet was erected to record the names of those from the town of Rotherham who volunteered and served during the Boer War 1899-1902
