Weston Meadows, Weston Close
The development and Weston Close are named for Walter and Ada Weston, who both served in the First World War.
Walter Samuel Weston enlisted at 18 into the Royal Warwickshire Regiment, as an infantryman, serving at Etaples, battlegrounds on the Somme, and at Ypres.

Ada Weston (nee Dew), joined the Royal Flying Corps, Yatesbury Camp, June 1899. After training as a telegrapher, Ada went on to service in Germany and France.
Gordon Weston, son of Walter and Ada, officially opened the development alongside his wife, son, daughter, three grandsons and a granddaughter. Surely a great example of a community focussed and morale lifting use of street naming.
