11/11/15: Poignant war memorial unveiled at Salford depot

A war memorial hidden away at a Salford electricity depot for almost a century has been restored to its former glory and put in pride of place at the site.

We are trying to arrange a visit to the depot to take some pictures.

From the names I can make out it looks as if it is the same 15 names that appear on the Salford Corporation memorial under "Electricity Dept" link
