Botusfleming is a village in southeast Cornwall. The village is about three miles north-west of Saltash. There is a public house (the Rising Sun), a market garden, parish church (St Mary) and a small colony of artists, but the village is mostly a dormitory area for Plymouth.
War memorials were mainly constructed after WWI to commemorate the troops who gave their lives in the war. Many were then updated after WWII. Some war memorials date back to the Boer War. Almost every town and village in Britain has a War Memorial. They take many forms, the commonest being an obelisk, a cross or statue of a soldier. Some commemorate the inhabitants of a place, some are for schools and others are for companies or Military groupings.
