I’m pleased that the W’s haven’t been done yet as it gives me something to look forward too, I’m also hoping to get over to Shipley at sometime to search local records.

I wanted to put his service number and Regiment on a wooden remembrance cross for Sunday, we have three to place this year, one each for the first and the second world war and one more recent event in Afghanistan…
Try this site, if they can't help no one can.
The Western Front Association Front Forum: discussing The Great War 1914-18 • Index page

When the W's come on line remeber there are two sets of records.
The British Army Service Records.
The British Army Pension Records.
As he died in 1922, presumably from war wounds he may have been in receipt of a pension.
