Description
The Barmpton, Great Burdon and Haughton-le-Skerne War Memorial is located on a small green area to the east of the Grade I-listed Church of St Andrew and near several other listed buildings on Haughton Green. The memorial features a tall stone Celtic cross that rises from a tapered plinth, which is set on a square step.
The main dedicatory inscription on the plinth states: "IN GRATEFUL MEMORY OF THE 18 MEN OF BARMPTON, GREAT BURDON AND HAUGHTON-LE-SKERNE WHO BY THE GRACE OF GOD GAVE THEIR LIVES IN THE GREAT WAR 1914 – 1919. THEIR BODIES ARE BURIED IN PEACE, BUT THEIR NAME LIVETH FOR EVERMORE." The names of those commemorated are inscribed on the other sides of the plinth.
