The Memorial Gates

Submitted by Sharon on

The Memorial Gates, Constitution Hill, London were opened in 2002 by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II to commemorate the sacrifices made by the people of Africa, Asia and the West Indies.

An exhibition 'We Were There was also set up by the Ministry of Defence and British Armed Forces to support the occasion.

A book based on the exhibition was also produced and an on-line exhibition is now available at http://webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/20040524045243/mod.uk/wewerethere/
