In Tylers Green, 30 trees were planted in 1937 to commemorate local men who were killed in the First World War. The casualty's name is displayed on a small plaque placed at the foot of each tree. A plan of the location of these trees can be seen at Tylers Green Memorial Trees  The plan was unveiled at a re-inauguration ceremony of the trees on 28 June 2009.

In about 2009, some young replacement memorial trees were vandalised. To deter further gross vandalism, a special DNA 'grease' was used to coat the trees' metal protective frame.
