Notes
Hornshaw and Fowler provide the extra details. He was one of 5 serving brothers, 3 of whom died (he is the brother of Arthur and William who are also commemorated here). Ben worked in the furnishing department of the Hebden Bridge Co-Op before he enlisted in May 1915. He was killed by shellfire as he went over the top. His age was given in the press as both 21 and 23 and he is not commemorated on any other Calderdale memorial but is on the Arras Memorial.
