This war memorial plaque is at the Oxford Crematorium in Bayswater Road. It is on the easternmost wall of the central garden, and faces west towards the chimney of the crematorium. It contains the names of 47 men killed in the Second World War whose bodies were cremated here. These will have come from a wide area, not just Headington.
