Folkestone: Battle of Britain Memorial Folkestone: Battle of Britain Memorial No Data

Description


The simple, but moving, memorial sits on the cliffs looking out towards France and the horizon from which wave after wave of aircraft came during the summer and autumn of 1940. The simple memorial wall lists the names of those who gave their lives in the increasingly desperate bid to defend Britain from the Nazi's. Those Few who between them saved a nation.
