Port Talbot War Memorial

It is located in the Talbot Memorial Park,[1] where it was erected in 1925; the names from the Second World War were added later.

[2] It was sculpted by Louis Frederick Roslyn, and was unveiled on 4 July 1925 by Sir William R. Robertson.

The park in which it stands was donated to the town by Miss Emily Charlotte Talbot of Margam Castle,[3] and opened to the public in 1926.

[7] Hallowes, born in Surrey, moved to Port Talbot in 1910 and was employed at the Mansel Tinplate Works.

He was killed on the Western Front in September 1915 and was posthumously awarded the Victoria Cross.
