Military Stories Menu
This menu will provide access to our research into the men and women who were associated with Dore and who served in the British Armed Forces. Much reseach has been undertaken in recent years and the results of this research will gradually be added. This is an ongoing project for the team.
Click on a name to read their story. A pdf will open in another tab and the pdf can be downloaded if wished.

In November 2025 a leaflet was produced for visitors to the graveyard of Dore Parish Church. The map guides visitors to eight of the gravestones where men who served are buried or memorialised. You can download a copy of the map here and find their names and stories in the menu below.
