Old postcard of the War Memorial, Stansted


Back in 2014 I posted another postcard of the war memorial, and it looks like this one was taken at the same time but here you can see more of the hill opposite and surrounding area. Because of the stamp cost, it was probably sent between 1922 - 1940. I wonder who Claire and Bernard were, and their Aunty in Norfolk, Miss Disdale? All these simple little communications now lost to instant text messaging which makes me a little sad.
