Description
MILNSBRIDGE DRILL HALL WAR MEMORIAL 1914-1921
The Milnsbridge Drill Hall War Memorial was designed and sculpted by George Iredale in 1921. It was unveiled and dedicated on 3rd December, 1921. The memorial tablets were moved from Milnsbridge Drill Hall on its closure in the 1950s and moved to St Pauls Street Drill Hall. As with the 5th Battalion War memorial, already in the Drill Hall it was noted that very little was known about those who were commemorated on the seven stone tablets, even though their Army numbers were shown with their names and initials. However, this did not reduce the complexity of the research and many anomalies cropped up, not helped at all by the random way the names had been added to the tablets at the time it was produced.
As with the 5th Battalion War Memorial, some names had been omitted which could or should have been commemorated alongside the 840 original names. There were twenty one names and details of these men are included as an appendix in this book. The Huddersfield Drill Hall Trustees have again approved the commissioning of the addition of these names to appear alongside those of their comrades. This work is to be unveiled and dedicated in December, 2021.
It is hoped that the information that has been collected will help the families of the fallen to research their forebears.
Lest We Forget.
