Diamond War Memorial
Erected in 1927, the Diamond War Memorial is located on The Diamond in the centre of Londonderry, County Londonderry, Northern Ireland. It is dedicated to the citizens of the city who lost their lives while in military service during World War I.
==Planning==
In early 1919, the public leaders of the city of Derry first considered initiating a fund to erect a memorial to the fallen of the Great War. The memorial would be composed of granite or bronze and would have the names of the deceased inscribed upon it.〔(Diamond War Memorial – History )〕 The City War Memorial Fund was established in February 1919. It required several years to obtain the necessary funding from charitable contributions.〔 By the sixth anniversary of the 1918 Armistice, some Derry citizens became disgruntled by the slow progress. However, the following year, in April 1925, the design and location of the memorial were approved by the city's War Memorial Committee.〔 However, they still faced the hurdle of obtaining consent from the Londonderry Corporation, which was obtained after some initial disagreement with regard to the proposed location of the monument.
