High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Cenotaph is a war memorial located in Whitehall, London.

Designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens, the permanent structure was built from Portland stone between 1919 and 1920 by Holland, Hannen & Cubitts, replacing Lutyens' earlier, temporary wood-and-plaster cenotaph in the same location.
