I WISH to protest against the plan to move Dunscar War Memorial.

I live in south-east Bolton, but I have always been impressed with the Egerton memorial.

I am an old lady, born in the 1914-18 war. My father served in that war, he was one of the "old contemptibles".

When I was a young girl, he said that, of all the war memorials he has seen, the one at Egerton was the best - a fitting tribute to the thousands of young infantrymen lost in the war.

Please do not allow the plan to move it go forward, for the sake of all young men who lost their lives, and are still losing lives. Some things are more sacred than money.
