About the memorial: Brass Plaque, on the south wall below the WW1 memorial-WMO/168281. This parish includes the village of Holmrook. Note that there is now a photograph of the war grave of Sapper Ivor Hunter beside the memorial. He died on 23 May 1947, and the war grave is in the adjacent Churchyard. He is commemorated by the CWGC, but not by the UK Roll of Honour, so, as far as is known, this is a post WW2 death from wounds/the effects of war, not due to a post 1945 conflict situation.
