KRRC Memorial Wimbledon Common
The War Memorial that features on the page in the link below may be of interest to those following this long running thread. Not strictly London Regiment but closely linked and situated in London.

A great day yesterday for the boys of Orasot, we had our Christmas Dinner at the Rifles club in Davies St, drill hall of the QVR's We all felt very proud to dine there, we got a guided tour of the building too which was fantastic and now allows me to add pics of the 9th Londons war memorial, enjoy,

It looks as though the London Irish memorial is or was at the Duke of York's HQ, Chelsea.

A short Pathé news clip from the unveiling of the QWR memorial at Westminster Abbey, in 1923 (as mentioned in post #123 above).
Not a great deal to see, but I assume the men on parade are Queen's Westminster Riflemen: https://youtu.be/Ck4JQEZuX1E |

They are indeed QWR men mate, the Officer with the sword is George Herbert Lambert, the one on his left I am working on but believe it may be Philip Edward Harding, hope to confirm one day!!! Cheers for adding the link JT,

You have shamed me into action JT Not Harding at all, it's Eric George Simon Waley, he was in G coy with Lambert in 1914, there you go mate

The old TA drill hall has gone but the memorial now appears to be built into new, or at least clean looking accommodation. Although it's looking cleaner than in Keith's photo, there was only one small weathered remembrance cross in the planters whereas the Bermondsey war memorial was looking very well looked after and covered in poppies.
