Leeds Boer War Plaque
« on: Tuesday 31 October 06 16:43 GMT (UK) »
Hi,

I am hoping that someone passes by the Leeds Town Hall often and can take a picture for me of the Boer War plaque inside. My GGrandfather fought in the war and came from Leeds so is on the plaque, I'd love to have a picture of the plaque overall and one of his name if anyone passes it.

He is J Charlewood.

Thanks!
