'Cookham
and the Great War 1914-1918' is a history of a village caught up in
the greatest conflagration the World has ever seen. A socially
divided village, the toffs and the ordinary working people came
together in adversity. Grief was a common bond as they worked
together to remember their war dead. This exhibition
looks at the remarkable stories of the men on the monuments and the
villagers who built them. FREE entrance.
