There are two memorials to the Fallen of WW1 in St John's Church: the Upperthong Memorial Plaque and the war memorial of Lane Chapel, Holmfirth relocated when worship at the Chapel was discontinued. This Community presents the lifestories of the men commemorated on both memorials, with the exception of N LOCKWOOD who has not been identified.
