About the memorial: Addition to family gravestone. In the transcripts this is number 78, volume 1. Matthew Hudson are both forenames. From the transcripts the surname is known to be Mossop. That is also quite clear on the gravestone. It is the gravestone closest to the Church on the right hand side of the access path from the Lych gate. It faces east, that is away from the path, so can easily be missed. He is also commemorated at Seascale on WMO/170410 and 172736.

Some war memorials are not eligible for funding from War Memorials Trust.
Further information is provided on our helpsheet ‘Definition of a war memorial for funding purposes’.

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.
