Balfour war memorial plaques situated on the wall of the Balfour Bowling Club/RSA building.

The Balfour war memorial originally consisted of a gate with the plaques located on the pillars. The dedication ceremony for the gates was held on 25 May 1949. The plaques from the memorial gates have since been removed to the Balfour RSA. Roll of Honour boards inside the building include those for Longridge village and Longridge school.
