Liverpool Corporation Memorial

WATER workers from yesteryear who fought for their country are being remembered following the restoration of a First World War roll of honour.

Soldiers who worked for the old Liverpool Corporation are listed on the artefact which United Utilities had restored after years in storage at its treatment works in Bickerstaffe, it was found in 2012. Sadly now kept at Prescot Water Treatment Works.
