About the memorial: The Hall and adjoining parkland (Astley Park) was given to the people of Chorley, after the First World War, as its War Memorial. It was officially handed over in 1922 by the then owner, Reginald Arthur Tatton (1857 - 1926) and is now owned and maintained by Chorley Council for the people of the Borough. Inside the Hall is a small memorial room with several wooden panels with the names of some of the fallen from the town in the First World War. In the corner of the walled garden behind the hall is a stone slab recording the gift to the town
