This memorial is in the Warwickshire village of Maxstoke.

The Sinking of NH.M.S Natal at anchor is well documented on the internet googling H.M.S Natal is sufficient

This striking memorial in the grounds of Worcester Cathedral is the only one i have seen relating to the Boer War.



also in the grounds is this First and second world war memorial which is less triumphant and artistic but perhaps more fitting.

Croome court in Worcestershire near the village of Croome D'abitot is a stately home managed by the National trust and worthy of a visit .In its grounds is the the small church of Saint Mary the Virgin built by Capability brown with an Adams interior .Among the over stated memorials to the Earls of Coventry is this plaque that though less effulgent has more meaning to me.

The Invergordon Archive might appreciate a copy of the image of Natal Captain's memorial to add to their collection
