General notes

Westfield Village was opened by Field Marshall Haig.

"The village was the design of Thomas Mawson, the landscape gardener whose own son had served with the 1st/5th King's Own and killed in 1915. The land on which the village is built was the estate of Sir Thomas Storey and was given by his family through his son, Herbert L Storey of Bailrigg, Lancaster."

The memorial was unveiled two years later in August 1926.
