Many readers will know of Sandham Memorial Chapel and Stanley Spencer’s stunning paintings reflecting his experiences of Salonika. If you haven’t visited before, there is a great opportunity to do so this September as part of a programme that offers over 3,000 free in-person or virtual visits to sites in the UK.
The sites open this September include several military museums and other sites of relevant interest. For example, the Commonwealth War Graves Commission has created a number of open days and tours across the country.
