SUMMERSEAT is to remem-ber its war dead in an updated memorial, almost 63 years after the end of the Second World War.

The village's war memorial, which was erected after the end of the First World War in 1918, is to be updated to include the names of those who died in subsequent military conflicts.

The memorial, in the graveyard at Rowlands Methodist Church, Rowlands Road, was paid for by donations from members of the church congregation after the end of the First World War.

Anyone interested in suggesting names for the memorial should contact Anne McDonald on 01706 824 246.

The church is to pay for the new plinth but may request a contribution to the cost of lettering, which costs £1 per letter.
