A PROPOSAL to install permanent war memorial statues in Little Totham is set to be approved by the district council.

A plan to install three steel statues on the Totham Plains in The Street has been put forward by the parish council and will commemorate soldiers who fought in the Second World War.

The statues will be positioned around the existing village sign, on concrete bases and would be surrounded by a border of wooden railway sleepers to create a small memorial garden.

The meeting is set for next Monday.
