The Exmouth Grammar School 1939-45 War memorial
This memorial was previously situated in the school hall. When amalgamation took place at the end of the 1960s the then headteacher decided that it was, perhaps, no longer apt for items referring to only one of the schools to be exhibited as such. Thanks to the work of former members of staff the memorial was liberated and now has pride of place in Withycombe Parish Church and is regularly maintained. It is an objective of the present reunion organisers to ensure that a poppy wreath, or similar suitable memory, is placed at the memorial during November each year. Thanks are due to Geoff Hill for the photograph and for information about this particular item.
