Hello CheshireRifles.

Find My Past Newspapers hold 'The Stalybridge Reporter' which covers news of the 6th Battalion, Cheshire Regiment, and maybe of use to your research. I have attached three articles where officers from this battalion are featured as example.

Saturday, December 5th, 1914 - Captain Robert Gimson.

Saturday, January, 29, 1916 regarding Second - Lieutenant Percy Marshall

Saturday, September 16, 1916 - Captain R Kirk

Gunner 87

IIRC there are some photos in John Hartley's book on 6th Cheshires and in the pamphlet "Stockport Lads Together"

That’s a great image. Thank you for sharing. Love the different type of headdress he is wearing.   Need a copy of that book.

both are available from that well-known auction site - the pamphlet is reasonably priced compared to elsewhere (if you can find a copy that is!)
