Runnymede War Memorial
Overlooking the River Thames on Cooper’s Hill in Runnymede, Surrey, is Runnymede Memorial, sometimes known as the Air Forces Memorial. The memorial commemorates more than 20,000 airmen and women who were lost in the Second World War during operations from bases in the United Kingdom and North and Western Europe who have no known grave.
Restore London’s work was planned and executed in full compliance with the CWGC Conservation Area controls. The project consisted of carefully removing all defective pointing to the paviors and repointing in full.
All the restoration works were carried out during normal working hours whilst ensuring public safety at all times.
