The Menin Gate Memorial bears the names of 54,900 British and Empire soldiers who died fighting in WWI, but have no known grave. An inscription on the arch reads 'Here are recorded names of officers and men who fell in Ypres salient, but to whom the fortune of war denied the known and honourable burial given to their comrades in death'. Another 35,000 names were later inscribed at Tyne Cot cemetery when it was realised there was not enough room for them all on the Menin Gate. The British Government gave £150,000 to build the gate, which was constructed between 1923 and 1927. Every evening at 8.00 two buglers from the local fire brigade sound 'The Last Post' in a moving ceremony under the gate of the arch.
