Details |
Page from The Sphere reporting on the unveiling of the Cenotaph in Whitehall by King George V on 11 November 1920. A temporary structure of wood and plaster had been built the previous year but it was decided a permanent building of Portland Stone should be built. Designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens, it remains the focal point for Remembrance Day services today.
