Description
The Lambley and Hartleyburn War Memorial is located in the south-east corner of the churchyard of the Church of St Mary and St Patrick, which is also a Grade II-listed building. The memorial stands approximately 3 meters tall and is constructed from Aberdeen granite. The cross features a head designed in the style of the St Cuthbert cross, complete with a central hemispherical boss. The tapering shaft of the cross rises from a small square pedestal, which is set on a stepped base made of Kenton freestone. Surrounding the memorial cross is a square stone kerb.
On the front face of the cross shaft, there is a principal dedicatory inscription in applied metal lettering that reads: "ERECTED BY PUBLIC SUBSCRIPTION IN HONOURED MEMORY OF (4 NAMES) WHO SACRIFICED THEIR LIVES IN THE WAR 1914 – 1918 'TO THE GLORY OF GOD.'" Additionally, the front face of the pedestal bears the inscription: "GREATER LOVE HATH NO MAN THAN THIS THAT A MAN LAY DOWN HIS LIFE FOR HIS FRIENDS."
