Seaton Burn War Memorial

Seaton Burn War Memorial is a Grade II listed structure made of red and grey granite. The memorial is designed in the form of a mausoleum and is enclosed by wrought iron fencing, which is situated within a roadside area bordered by a stone wall with pillars placed at intervals.

The memorial features a three-stepped square base and a castellated plinth that supports a tall square pedestal. This pedestal has short curvilinear clasping buttresses and engaged columns at each corner, which rise above the entablature and are topped with decorative finials. At the top of the pedestal is a domed column that holds a stone Celtic cross.

On the front sides of the column, pink granite panels display the names of 72 individuals who fell in both World Wars. The lettering is incised and gilded, using sans serif capitals throughout. The inscription on the front face reads:

In memory of the men / of Seaton Burn / and District / who fell / in the Great War / 1914-18 /

Also / 1939-1945
