Location
The memorial plaques were originally located in the offices of the City of Portsmouth Passenger Transport Department Depot at Highland Road, Eastney. The building was later converted for use by the Police Service and the memorial was relocated to the Portsmouth Passenger Club in Malins Road, Portsmouth. This closed in 2010 and the memorial was then handed over to Portsmouth City Museum where it is held in store.
