    Almost certain this is on the Burren road Warrenpoint but will confirm.

    This could be the same house in Streetview. The bay widows and door are unchanged, but the upstair widows have been enlarged.

    From www.smilodon.plus.com/WarMems/martley.html :
    George Nash ... were ex-pupils of the King's School. Worcester. George died of wounds on the 29th June 1915 in Boulogne, and was buried at Martley on the 3rd July, with a detachment of the school's OTC under Lieut. R.M.M. Beach Hicks lining the churchyard path.

    From the same link:
    "There were two fifth form prizes endowed at the King's School in their honour, the James Nash Classical Prize, and the George Nash Divinity Prize. There is, apparently, a stained glass window in their memory in Martley Church" It would appear then that George's brother James was also killed in 1915 serving with the East Surreys.

    Richard and Edith Nash of The Noak in Martley had three sons, George, James and Slade. All three of the boys went to School House at King's School in Worcester. George and James went onto scholarships at Cambridge and Oxford. However, the War broke out in 1914 and both young men enlisted. Within a year they were both dead.

    James was the first to fall in action, in April 1915 in the trenches near Ypres. He was killed by a bullet fired from long range. He was just 21 and was buried in the Kemmel military cemetery in Flanders.

    Just two months later, George was seriously wounded during the battle at Hooge. An operation was thought to have been successful but he later deteriorated. His mother braved the dangers of trevelling abroad during the war and was with him when he died at the end of June, aged 24. She brought his body back to Worcester and it was taken on a gun carriage first to The Noak and then to St. Peter's for the funeral service.

    Later, the George Nash Divinity Prize and the James Nash Classical Prize were endowed in their honor, both for the fifth form pupils of King's School.
