First World War memorial tablet to be rededicated at church service in Scunthorpe
A LOST First World War Wesleyan memorial tablet is set to be rededicated at a service in Scunthorpe.
The tablet has recently been rediscovered after being stored for safekeeping at the town's Old Brumby United Church (formerly St Mark's Methodist Church) almost 50 years ago.
It includes more than 30 names and was originally displayed in the former Trinity Methodist Church, which stood on the corner of High Street and Wells Street.
The service will be at Old Brumby United Church on Ashby Road, Scunthorpe on Sunday, March 3 at 10.30am.
