 In 1990 Peter Fletcher approached the Co-Operative in Portsmouth and they donated a beautiful 'special' stone. It was special because it had come from a specific quarry to match the stonework of Portsmouth Cathedral, This Stone was unveiled by councillor Syd Rapson BEM The Lord Mayor on Tuesday 19th February 1991.

The stone is  accompanied by a memorial bench presented by the Portsmouth Branch 1992. The bench was made by Len Gladdis (exRN) now deceased, which shows several names of past members.
