I visited Chesterfield Museum today to see the original pencil drawing by Joseph Syddall of his design for the War Memorial in Old Whittington. I found an extra surprise as they also have a photograph of the war Memorial when it was originally Dedicated together with an Order of Service from the Unveiling and Dedication ceremony on February 20th 1921.
Thank you to Anne Marie Knowles for the information.
I was allowed to take photographs of these items and these can be seen at https://oldwhittingtonops.com/old-whittington-war-memorials/ or https://oldwhittingtonops.com/joseph-syddall/
