It is not (usually) the memorial itself which is of historic interest but the event or person it commemorates. For example, this plaque was unveiled in 1993: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Cardigan_Eisteddfod_Plaque.jpg The event it commemorates took place in 1176 and is considered to be of great cultural and historical significance: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1176_Cardigan_eisteddfod That plaque could be destroyed by a car driving into it and be replaced by a new plaque. That new plaque would still qualify as historic=memorial the moment it was installed, because the historical interest is in the event it commemorates. -- Paul
