I was in town today and thought I would stop off at the Exeter Blitz Memorial, hidden away at the back of Princesshay shopping centre, it’s always peaceful and quiet and just perfect for one to collect thoughts and remember those that had fallen.

Reviewed By crazycolin - Cambuslang, United Kingdom

After an early breakfast, went for a walk through the park. Very nice on a sunny morning with the autumn colours and lots of squirrels running around! The War Memorial is worth a visit.
