and in
affectionate remembrance

their lives in the service of their

This memorial to one of the Norfolk Cavalry Regiments is in the North Aisle of the Nave of Norwich Cathedral. Note the emphasis on the ‘Glory of God’ and ‘King and Country’ as might be expected from a Regular Regiment in the Great War.
Here is the Window which is very Pre Raphaelite in style with St George prominently riding down the dragon flanked by Victory and Valour on each side.

Ref No 2.0 in my list of WW1 War Memorials, looking at what the dedications tell us about how ordinary people felt about the War that had just ended.
