Nottinghamshire & Derbyshire RegimentTypical N&DR (Sherwood Foresters) badge as used on CWGC headstones, when provided - although L.Cpl. SH Bagshaw has a CWGC headstone there is no room for a badge as Pte. SJ Barfield, #4695, Lincolnshire Regt., and Spr. F Rushton, #1026 Royal Engineers, are buried there and also inscribed on the headstone..Contributed by:

Newspaper report - Off to the front againUndated clipping, but likely to have been from a Matlock newspaper. The rank of L-Cpl. suggests possibly after his recuperation from gassing/pneumonia in mid-1915 [thus possibly c. Nov. 1915] - From the private papers of his uncle John Bagshaw https://livesofthefirstworldwar.org/lifestory/7667871Contributed by:
