Councillor Joan Tindale
A councillor inspired by her grandfather’s memories of the First World War has undertaken a research project to commemorate the names of villagers killed during wartime.
Coun Joan Tindale, a member of the parish council in Cowling, near Keighley, is researching a project that would involve putting up new remembrance boards around the village to mark the 100th anniversary of the start of the Great War.
The boards would include the names of 60 Cowling men killed in the First World War and ten villagers who died in the Second World War.
