    Default Huntingdon Memorials

    I seem to recall some pictures of a memorial plaque at Castle Hill House that were posted on AiX but I can't find them. Was I going mad or is there a plaque here? Are there any other memorials in Huntingdon?

    Castle Hill House, is this the old council offices on the old high street where I went to pay my poll tax once!!!!!? Not to be confused with Pathfinder House which I seem to recall is the new "edifice"? Someone with a better memory may well put me right

    PATHFINDER HOUSE, HUNTINGDON

    Looks like this building is going to be demolished. There is a memorial plaque to the units at Alconbury in store here, hopefully it will move back to Alconbury.

    There is a very fine bronze war memorial in the town centre http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi..._-_1533874.jpg, all pedestrianised last time I was there, and about 100 yards down the street a Boer war memorial set into a church yard wall.
