The memorial cross was unveiled in July 1921 by Colonel HR Headlam. Conservation and repair work was carried out in 2007, funded by the War Memorials Trust. The cross and the memorial (list of names) behind it were listed grade 2 (list entry 1428327) in 2015 as part of World War 1 centenary commemorations.
The Holme Valley Memorial Hospital, and the Holme, Holmfirth and Newmill Memorial Cross standing in the hospital grounds, were conceived together to commemmorate the men from Holmfirth District who fell in the First World War. The scheme was led by Dr RH Trotter and funded by public subscription. The original hospital building opened in 1919.
