Walkway stones

Anyone who has a connection to Barnsley can buy a stone for the walkway. Stones can be bought at any time of the year. You'll need to provide proof of service.

The content of the stones is limited to:

  • name, rank and service number (we can't accept nicknames)
  • emblem - we can include one official emblem to represent the unit served
  • name of unit

Proof of service 

Any personnel who have left the military since December 2018 will automatically be given an ID card.  The card is designed to give you easier access to public and charitable support, including healthcare and housing, as well as providing retail discounts. 

You can find out more about the veterans ID card at GOV.UK or get a copy of military service records.

Cost of stones

We're currently updating our supplier and once we have this in place we'll be able to confirm the cost of the stone.

If you're interested in a stone please complete the form below and we'll be in touch once we have a supplier.
