During
the Great War the town of Burnley (and its districts) suffered a disproportionate
amount of casualties compared to many other towns and cities in Great
Britain. The site aims to honour the men from Burnley who served in this
terrible conflict and also to show the effect of the war on the town.
It is also hoped to link to the research published by other members of
the East Lancashire Medal and Militaria
Society and also to use the site as a gateway to the Burnley Roll
of Honour database.

Has
anyone any old photographs of Burnley streets or factories?
If you are looking for
information on any Burnley soldier from the Great War please get in touch
and I will post whatever information I have on the site.
Also please let me know if you find the site interesting (or not !) and
what interest you have with the town of Burnley.
