There's also a stamp saying 'Dead' which is then initialled and dated 23/06/1924, if that helps.

'DEAD' on a pension card more often than not means that it is the pension claim that is dead and not the man.

There's a death for an Irvine Lockwood Mar. 1924 W. Riding.
Age is out a bit.

You may well be right.  There is another document I hadn't initially spotted as its indexed as Iroin Lockwood (same service number).  This has a Dormant stamp on it and a separate note saying 'final closed notice sent 18.10.22'

Hello, I came across this by accident. My grandmother, Sarah Ellen, was the sister of Irvin Lockwood of Knotty Lane, Lepton. We visited his wife, Auntie Beatrice, regularly at the Knotty Lane House (where the Lockwoods had resided for at least a couple of generations before). My father, Billie, was born in that house. I have photographs of Irvin as a young man. I never knew he had a medal. I'm new to this site - are we able to communicate privately?
