The Names on the Memorial

As well as the Scouts commemorated in the Book of Remembrance and the tablets outside by the War Memorial, there are the names of the men from the parish who died in the First World War. The men who died in the Second World War are commemorated in the Book of Remembrance only. There is also a Memorial in the Book of Remembrance to the men of St. Wulstans Longbridge Hayes who died in the both wars. All their names are recorded below as written in the Book of Remembrance.

Note: if a name has “S” beside it, this indicates this person was a Scout but is not recorded on the Scout Memorial.
If the name has a “W” beside it, this indicates the person is also commemorated on Wolstanton War Memorial. ¹

Those names in blue and underlined contain a link to that man’s page on the Commonwealth War Graves Commission’s website.

St. Wulstan’s Longbridge Hayes

There were two memorials (WW1 & WW2) in St. Wulstan’s Longbridge Hayes church to men killed in action. St. Wulstan’s was St. Andrew’s sister Church.
Those two Memorials are now in St. Barnabas Church in Bradwell (in the same Parish as St. Andrews). Many names on these two Memorials are on the Porthill one. There is also a separate entry in the Book of Remembrance for men from Longbridge Hayes, although not all the men on the War Memorials are in the Book of Remembrance!

Most are commemorated on the Porthill War Memorial (indicated by a P after their name).
