To the dear memory of / Philip Musgrave Neeld / Wroughton / of Woolley Park / Major Berks Yeomanry / Born August 30th 1887 / Killed in action at Gaza Palestine / April 19th 1917, Aged 29
He whom this cross commemorates / was numbered among those who at the call of King and Country left / all that was dear to them, enduring hardness faced danger and finally / passed out of the sight of men by the path of duty and self sacrifice / giving up their own lives that others might live in freedom / let those who come after see to it that his name be not forgotten.
Also in grateful memory / of all those in the Berks / Yeomanry who gave their / lives for their country / 1914-1918
