Now that we have been running for nearly two years there is a little of bit of forum administration to be done.

For example there are some threads out there where we need photographs. We may not have photographs of the name panels or even of the memorial itself. We may need up to date photographs as well.

Other threads might not have a location, Ordnance Survey reference or a UKNIWM entry.

We will also start adding unveiling details so if they haven’t been posted we’ll list them here.

There will probably be other things needing some attention which I haven’t thought of but will be listed here too.

We will start making up a list here covering all this area’s memorials, civic, church, regimental etc. If we come across something that will need actioned the Mods. can add it to this list. If you see something that needs updated please post in this thread and we can update the list.

I've got a list of 87 Church of Scotland churches currently open in Edinburgh. Quite a few of them have been the result of unions and transportations over the years so it's a bit of a guddle sorting out the churches from the 1920s from the churches of today.
We've got a few on the forum already but I'll start contacting the others to see if they can help us.

I've added a new entry about a Portobello church and I'm still working on the list of other Edinburgh churches.
