Gunner Arthur Herbert ROWLES MM (General)
An exceptionally brave man;
"Arthur Herbert Rowles died aged 30 from gas poisoning in the Second Battle of the Somme of 1918. While serving with the 5th Heavy Artillery Group as a gunner, he was awarded a Military Medal for his actions in saving a member of his gun crew. He dug him out of a trench after he was trapped by debris, which had gone through the other man's arm. At the time they were being bombarded by German artillery."

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.
