Description
The Lowick War Memorial is a First World War memorial built in 1920 by Messrs Tully and Son. It is constructed from polished grey granite and sandstone. The memorial features a square three-stepped stone pedestal topped by a polished grey granite column with a crenellated top, which is further surmounted by a polished grey granite Latin cross. The column is adorned with a series of incised crosses and the names of the fallen are inscribed in the spaces between them.
The front of the memorial bears the inscription: "SACRED TO THE MEMORY OF THOSE MEN WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES FOR KING AND COUNTRY IN THE GREAT WAR 1914-1919. AND ALSO TO THE MEMORY OF THOSE WHO FELL IN THE WORLD WAR 1939-1945 LEST WE FORGET THEY DIED THAT WE MIGHT LIVE." Additional inscriptions on the other faces of the memorial list the names of those who fell in both World Wars.
This well-maintained and well-executed war memorial is striking and reflects strong local ties, commemorating the names of the fallen from two World Wars.
