Decision details

That the nomination for a Westminster Commemorative Green Plaque for Captain Thomas Riversdale Colyer-Fergusson V.C. at Orchard Court, Fitzhardinge Street, W1, be approved, subject to sponsorship in full.

This nomination formed part of a wider programme to mark the Centenary of the First World War. The proposed unveiling of this Green Plaque formed one of a series of events to commemorate the Battle of Passchendaele, a campaign that was to last over three months between July and November and cost the lives of 325,000 Allied and 260,000 German soldiers.
