Afghan War Memorial

In memory of the officers, non-commisioned officers and private soldiers of H.M's 59th Regiment who fell in action or died of wounds or disease during the Afghan Campaigns 1878 1879 1880

The Afghan War Memorial commemorates the members of H.M.'s 59th Regiment who died during the Second Anglo-Afghan War (1878–1880), a conflict involving British and Indian forces against Afghan resistance. It is significant as a local tribute to the regiment's sacrifices and reflects broader imperial military engagements in South Asia during the 19th century.
