We support the decision by stakeholders not to add further tablets to the Watts Memorial. We do, however, strongly support the idea to make Postman's Park, as a whole, a commemorative garden dedicated to civilian heroism and will put our full weight behind that plan.

@CaronLipman @walk_hackney @HistoryOfStokey @ArchivesHackney I wrote about both of those for my Stoke Newington group and I'm pretty sure I found out the stories by reading them in old newspaper articles I'd found on an "old newspaper article" site, but I can't remember which, it may have been via Genes Reunited.
