The Chattri Memorial in remembrance of Indian soldiers who died in the First World War north of Brighton on the South Downs in East Sussex UK . During the First World War injured Indian soldiers were hospitalised in the Royal Pavilion, Dome and Corn Exchange. The Royal Pavilion was the first Indian hospital to open in Brighton. The Hindus and Sikhs who died were cremated on the Downs and, in 1921, the Chattri memorial was constructed on the cremation site. Photograph taken by Simon Dack
