• 1990 - In a secluded area near Church Path (see map) we installed a wood bench, celebrating the 75th anniversary of the W.I. movement in Great Britain.

• 1997 - a Holm oak tree was added to commemorate 100 years since the formation of the first W.I. in Canada.

• 2002 - To mark the Queen's Golden Jubilee we were given permission by Purton Royal British Legion to plant two emerald 'n gold variegated Euonymus shrubs in the garden surrounding the Purton War Memorial situated in the High Street. The garden is beautifully maintained by volunteers from the village.
