Description
The War Memorial in New Seaham Welfare Park is a memorial dedicated to those who served in the 1st and 2nd World Wars, built around 1920. It is made of sandstone and features commemorative tablets of grey granite. The memorial consists of a tall, two-stage square pedestal with projecting canted corners, set on a stepped and moulded base. The lower stage includes two tablets within moulded surrounds and a deeply coved cornice. The narrower upper stage has a single commemorative tablet, flanked by two slightly over-life-size figures of an infantryman and a sailor on canted corner plinths. At the top, the memorial is crowned by a winged female figure on a stepped and moulded base.
