On the 6 March 2012 Corunna Company ( The 3rd Battalion The Yorkshire Regiment ) Duke of wellingtons, deployed to Afghanistan in early February as the armoured infantry company in southern Helmand province the guys had only been out a number of days when one evening having just left the Patrol base on of the Warriors was hit by an improvised explosive device (IED) which instantaneously killed all 6 people onboard.
PRC Landscapes were approached by CSgt Dave Bagnall and the commanding office of Corunna Company to build a memorial garden at the side of their workplace which is approximately 40 Metre Sq. with Yorkshire stone with a centre stone engraved with all the men that died last year on there.
PRC Landscapes worked on this project for free with the help of some friends to help remember the soliders who lost their lives:
- Bingley stone
- Marchants Hardy Plants
- Speedy Hire
- Hire standards
- Travis Perkins
- Frome area building supplies
- Western skip hire
- Wiltshire concrete
