“A moving tribute to those lost at sea.”
Many people regularly walk past this impressive memorial without realising what it is but the ones who stop will see that it commemorates the men and women of the Merchant Navy and fishing fleets who lost their lives at sea in World War I and World War II and have no grave but the sea.
The Memorial is next to Tower Hill Underground Station. Take a few minutes to look when you are next passing, there are thousands of names of crewmen listed there, with every ship and trawler lost in World War I and II.
