Titanic Memories - remembrance sites in the United Kingdom and Ireland
Introduction

If you were to ask anyone to name the most famous ship ever it would be more than likely that they would say "Titanic". She is the most famous ship ever and her story is known all over the world. This website examines the Titanic story from a different perspective by detailing some of the sites forever linked to the name "Titanic". These pages tell the stories behind some of the Titanic remembrance sites in the United Kingdom and Ireland dedicated to the memory of the men, women and children who died; each has its own story to tell and behind each memorial there is a individual tragedy.

There exist many Titanic memorials, some six-hundred and sixty-five memorials in twenty six countries; a great number of these in the United Kingdom and Ireland. History would not allow for such a calamitous event to be forgotten especially not one that had such serious repercussions. That so many memorials exist today and new memorials are being created, eighty-nine years after the disaster, is evidence of the impact of the Titanic disaster on society. Then, there are also those landmarks which are intrinsically linked to the Titanic story for perpetuity.

Currently sites in Alnwick in Northumberland; Colne in Lancashire; Darlington in County Durham; Dumfries in Scotland; Eastbourne in East Sussex; Lichfield and Hanley, Stoke-on-Trent in Staffordshire; Liverpool on Merseyside; London; Melksham in Wiltshire; and Southampton in Hampshire; and Cobh in the Republic of Ireland are detailed; more locations and photographs will be added to these webpages in the future.
