War Memorial, Tow Law


"Erected by the inhabitants of Tow Law, Thornley, Sunniside, Hedley Hope, East Hedley Hope and Satley to the sacred memory of those gallant men who, at the call of King and Country, left all that was dear to them, and, after eduring hardships and facing danger in the Great European War 1914-1919, passed from among their comrades by the path of duty and self sacrifice, giving their own lives that we might live in freedom. Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends."
