Hadfield War Memorial is located outside Hadfield Hall on Station Road. It is a copy of the Glossop Memorial in Norfolk Square. It was also dedicated on the same day. After the unveiling of the Glossop Memorial a couple of special cars carried Council Officials, the Old Band and members of the Choral Society to Hadfield.
A large crowd had gathered around the memorial to see the unveiling. At 3.30pm the Mayor, S. Bamforth, unveiled the War Memorial, which had been covered with a Union Jack. The Vicar of Whitfield, Rev. W. M. Martin-Ellis, then performed the dedication. The ceremony followed the same way as Glossop’s with “The Last Post“, singing of Sullivan’s “Homeland” and “The Reveille“. Wreaths were laid by Borough Council Officials and others.
“The whole of the Hadfield contingent of ex-service men then marched past the monument in single file and saluted – an impressive tribute from the living to their dead comrades.”
