More about this scene

Drayton's thatched, grey lias war memorial stands across Church Street from the Drayton Arms. Behind stands Church House, once a meeting-place for monks from nearby Muchelney Abbey. Behind that, St Catherine's Church is nearly hidden by two huge and ancient yews, which flank a 15th-century cross.

War Memorials

A special selection of photographs from our Archive of the War Memorials that connect us with those who fought and perished in the conflicts that have shaped the world we live in today. "They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, We will remember them."- Laurence Binyon, For The Fallen
