WW2 Panel.
In about 1997 the Highley Local History Society published a booklet Lest We Forget which gives information about the men of both wars. It draws on the CWGC and 'Soldiers Died', expanded by some details from family and local knowledge. The stories of the individual men are set against a short description of the events of the wars.
