Clayton and Whittle at War

The Clayton and Whittle at War website’s purpose is to help people discover more about the men from our two villages who served in the armed forces.

Since 2014 the aim has is to produce an archive about the villages of Clayton le Woods and Whittle le Woods during any period of war including WW1 and WW2.

In addition to telling the story of the men who died, I also do the same for those who returned from duty.

I wish to capture a glimpse into the way the villages were during the dark days of the wars.
