Knaresborough in the Second World War

Many Knaresborough citizens fought in the Second World War. A list of those on the War Memorial can be found in Roll of Honour and memories of two veterans, not just of the Second World War, can be found in the Picture Gallery Remembrance 2000 See also Local Lives
