As you can imagine this project took up quite a lot of time! Not just in designing the plaques, choosing the wording & finding a manufacturer who could produce the plaques to our exacting specifications. There was also the time to actually make the Memorial Plaque mounts. Then it was time to fit then to the Steps ready for September 16th! We only just made it too! The photos below are thumb-nails.
