Does anyone know if there is a memorial for fallen Welsh soldiers during the 1st World War at the above mentioned. The chairman of the Cwmtwrch branch of The Royal Welch Comrades Association told me that there was a memorial for English, Scottish and Irish soldiers. Also that his branch had made a donation towards the above said memorial.
Has anyone got any gen on this so that I can give him some feedback.

They're still in the planning and financing stage, as far as I know. See:
