I'm aware of a number of memorials which were formerly on display at places of work and churches which are now on display in museums and heritage centres.

Can anyone give me links to any we have listed on the forum here? I'm looking to see how many memorials are now on display in museums, and I'm goign to post something about this on the blog. I'd like a few more examples before I type it up.
