The Eston War Memorial is located at the junction of Jubilee Road with Eston High Street. The Memorial is in the form of a statue of a First World war soldier standing on a plinth, on which are the panels bearing the names of the dead of both the First World War and the Second World War.

The statue faces East, and the faces on the First World War panels are identified (below) by the direction in which they face. Curiously, at the bottom of each of the First World War panels an additional name appears to have been cut in, after the panels had been set.

Photos of the panels for the First World War names are shown below, together with a close-up of the statue of the soldier. By selecting the link, another page can be opened on which are the names of the dead for the First World War, with details of the men of the Yorkshire Regiment.
