Like in many villages in Britain, there were many First World War men who died for their country. These are memorialised around the base of The Cross of Sacrifice War Memorial in the churchyard of the Parish Church, Holy Trinity and on a memorial stone in the church.
There is also aboard listing all the men inside the Queen's Hall, up the hill.
Shirley Bond has also written a book about the men, detailing regiments, letters they had written home and as much other information that she could find. Her book is called "Cuckfield Remembered" ISBN 0955891108.
Shirley also kindly wrote a page about Cuckfield during the war for my website Cuckfield Compendium
There is also page called "The Fallen" on my site that lists the names of the fallen for the Boer War and the two World Wars.
Here is a link to the Roll Of Honour for Cuckfield that gives information about the men.
