Leslie is a small town not far from where I now live. My photographs of its War Memorial are here and of its remaining Art Deco buildings here. My post on the lost Regal Cinema is here.
As is common its cemetery gates carry the “Commonwealth War Graves here” sign.
I found four, three fromn the Great War, one from the Second World War.
