This memorial seat is by the Hardy Monument, near Portesham, Dorset. It's dedicated to the memory of Lieutenant Colonel William Digby Oswald D.S.O., who was killed in action on the Somme on 16th July 1916. There are two side-panels, one for his service as a Lieutenant in the Railway Pioneer Corps, in the South African War, 1902, and the other for his service in the Natal Rebellion, as a captain in Royston's Horse.
