The memorial is now in the Friary United Reformed Church on Musters Road/Millicent Road, West Bridgford, Nottingham. Queen's Walk Congregational Church was established on Queen’s Walk, Meadows. (The road was later renamed Queen’s Drive.) The church was established in 1874 as a mission church of Castle Gate Congregational Church, although it later became independent. The church closed in 1970 and the building was later demolished. The congregation amalgamated with the Friary Congregational Church, since 1972 the Friary United Reformed Church.
