RNPS Memorial

The memorial at Lowestoft commemorates Royal Naval Patrol Service personnel who died in the Second World War and have no known grave.

The RNPS Memorial in Belle Vue Park, Lowestoft is solely for those Royal Naval Patrol Service personnel who died between 1939 and 1946 and who have no known grave. Those who died and whose bodies were recovered are not included on this memorial.

Maintained by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, the memorial comprises a 12 metre diameter base with a central 15 metre fluted column surmounted by a gilt bronze lymphad. A panel of Portland stone describing the purpose of the memorial faces the sea with seventeen bronze panels listing the names of those remembered around the rest of the base. There is also a small addenda stone set into the ground for those who died on land but have no known grave.
