Dame Vera Lynn Down PLQ3 Plaque

A meadow on the White Cliffs of Dover has been named after the Forces' sweetheart, Dame Vera Lynn, who died at the age of 103 on 18th June 2020. Renamed Dame Vera Lynn Down, the meadow, perched on the white cliffs, harks back to her famous war-time song The White Cliffs of Dover. Dame Vera Lynn Down holds some of the wild flowers that now thrive in this meadow following the introduction of barley, like common vetch, bird’s-foot trefoil, crimson clover, yellow rattle, lady’s bedstraw, ox-eye daisy, and meadow buttercups. Colour bursts out with a sea of red poppies reminiscent of the many soldiers whose spirits were raised by Dame Vera’s outdoor concerts for the troops in Egypt, India and Burma.
