Description
The war memorial cross is located outside St Peter's Church, which is also a Grade II*-listed building, facing Yarm Road. It is made of pale stone and features a tall, hooded crucifixion design. The cross shaft rises from a small moulded pedestal that sits on a three-stepped base.
The front face of the pedestal has an incised dedicatory inscription that reads: "TO THE GLORY OF GOD AND IN EVER LIVING GRATITUDE TO HEROES OF THIS PARISH WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES IN THE GREAT WAR 1914-1919." While no names are recorded on the memorial cross itself, the 62 servicemen it commemorates are listed on a wooden plaque inside the church.
