About the memorial: CWGC headstone with names of local fallen. When the Ossett Baptist Lane Burial Ground was desecrated in 2002, the headstone was replaced by the CWGC in this nearby St John’s Methodist Church on South Parade. This Memorial Headstone includes only 4 of those Ossett men who lost their lives in WWI; the fifth, Edgar Audsley, at the request of his family, is now remembered by a CWGC Headstone erected at Stonefell Cemetery, Harrogate

As a conservation charity which gives grants War Memorials Trust can support repair and conservation works that follow best conservation practice. Grants are awarded from funds raised by the charity so money available is limited and is therefore focused on eligible war memorials.

War Memorials Trust’s Definition of a war memorial for funding purposes helpsheet explains which war memorials are eligible and ineligible for funding.

As a charity, War Memorials Trust relies on voluntary donations and every contribution, no matter how large or small, makes a really big difference to our work. Your donation will help protect and conserve war memorials for future generations so please support War Memorials Trust’s work.
