The first image is of the original WW1 memorial which faces onto the road which separates the memorial park from the Tower of London. The park in which the memorial is situated lies north of the River Thames and the Tower. The WW1 memorial looks like a Greek temple and like the WW2 memorial has plaques for all the ships lost and their crew members.

Behind the WW1 memorial is the WW2 one. Essentially it is a sunken garden, the walls of which are lined with memorial tablets to all the ships and their crews. What is nice about the memorial is that the office workers come out at lunchtime and sit in the memorial on the benches provided for lunch, to talk or just enjoy the sun. Unlike many war memorials therefore it is part of everyday life.

The second picture is of the front of the memorial taken from the west side. It consists of a low wall flanked on either side by small cenotaphs in front of each there being the figure of a sailor. The third photo is taken from the east side and you can see the sunken part of the memorial behind.
