First World War

Remembering Herne Hill 1914-18

A specially commissioned war memorial, carved on Welsh slate by Mark Brooks, was unveiled by Helen Hayes MP at Herne Hill Station on Sun 10 November 2019. This was the culmination of two years’ intensive research into Herne Hill’s casualties. The memorial stone was financed by London and South Eastern Railway.

Our memorial website now contains 553 full records of men (plus two women) from Herne Hill who died in the First World War.
