In Newbiggin (St. Bartholomew) Churchyard is a family headstone which reads:

In
loving
memory of
Robert Redford
Armstrong
beloved husband of
Isabella Armstrong
of Newbiggin
who died Feby. 20th 1910
aged 54 years.
Also of Redford, their son
who was killed in action
Sept. 29th 1918, aged 23 years
Isabella Armstrong
wife of the above
died Dec. 30th 1925
aged 73 years.

He is possibly remembered in Newbiggin-by-the-Sea on N10.06 and N10.14, but there is more than one "R. Armstrong" from the village, so it is not clear whose name is shown.
