"Local folks seemed to know about the location but only recently revealed it? '
That's the way it sounded to me too.
WTF?

You've never lived under the Soviets (or have known people who lived under the Soviets) have you?
See, they (the Soviets) WOULD remove and destroy any such evidence of British help during the uprisings to avoid encouraging the Polish nationalism and morale during the Soviet conquest.
Reminding people that the Brit's (or Americans) tried to help earlier only encourages revolt against the Communists. After all, the Russian armies were content to stop across the river and wait for the Germans to kill those Poles who were fighting.
Because any Poles who had the courage to fight the Nazis in '44 would have the courage to fight the Russians in '45, 46, 47, 48 ....
