The memorial in Mowbray Park pays tribute to the dedication and sacrifice of those who have served in the Armed Forces, with a further 84 stones revealed on Saturday, October 29.
It’s been six years since the first stones of the project were placed – and now, more than 1,000 stones sit in tribute to lost loved ones.
The unveiling was attended by veterans’ families, military standard bearers and Councillor Alison Smith, Mayor of Sunderland.
