Normandy Veterans Memorial Gardens black plaque — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

This black commemorative plaque records: The Normandy Veterans Memorial Gardens. This area known as "Sunken Gardens"is thought to be the most historic place in Grange-over-sands. Grange is thought to take its name from a French word "graunge" meaning "granary", an example of which was probably built here by black-robed Augustinian Canons of Cartmel Priory, a 12th century religious house endowed by William Marshall. Until the dissolution of England's monasteries in 1536, Priors of Cartmel imported supplies into the "graunge" through a harbour once sited close to the present Commodore Hotel. During "setting out" of these gardens in 1925, Mr Benson, a landscaper discovered foundations of a large barn. Recorded plaque organisation: Grange Civic Society.

The Normandy Veterans Memorial Gardens commemorate veterans of the D-Day landings and serve as a significant historical site in Grange-over-sands, marking both the area’s medieval agricultural past linked to Cartmel Priory and its later importance for honoring military service.
