13792 Lance-Corporal Charles Penhorwood of the 2nd Battalion, Welsh Regiment, was killed in action on the 8th November 1917 in the bitter fighting around Passchendaele. He was the son of Mrs Ellen Penhorwood of 13 Quarry Street, Swansea. He has no known grave and is one of nearly 35,000 men commemorated on the Tyne Cot Memorial.

At the going down of the sun, and in the morning, WE WILL REMEMBER THEM.
