About the memorial: Pre-existing organ (lost), Screen (lost) and Brass Dedication Plaque (which may not be original). Christ Church closed for worship in 1986 and was later adapted to be the town Art Gallery. The Organ (by Harrison and Harrison, 1887) was rebuilt in 1930 and disposed of on closure of the Church. It went into preservation, but was later stolen and is not now believed to exist. The screen was also lost after closure as a Church in 1986. The plaque is dome headed with the regimental badge in the dome head. See also another memorial to him at Bicester- WMO/258656.
