The 40 men named on two war memorials from the parishes of Bottesford and Muston in North East Leicestershire. Our centenary project also focuses on over two hundred and twenty recruits, their wartime biographies, memorabilia, and memories of them still within the community. This project is supported by a Heritage Lottery Fund award.
