Patrington War Memorial

Patrington War Memorial is a First World War memorial erected in 1917, situated along the main road at the junction of Market Place and Northside, surrounded by Grade II-listed buildings such as Green Farmhouse and the Manor House.

The memorial consists of a square monolith featuring four marble tablets, each corner supported by engaged granite columns with moulded caps and feet. These columns hold up a square stone slab entablature, which has granite ball finials at each corner. On the west face of the entablature, there are two palm branches carved in relief. The memorial is set on a narrow square plinth that is chamfered at the corners and along the top edge of each face, all resting on a two-stepped stone base.

The four tablets display inscriptions and names in raised leaded lettering. The west tablet states PATRINGTON/ ROLL/ OF HONOUR/ (25 NAMES), while the east tablet reads IN/ REMEMBRANCE/ 1914-1919/ (23 NAMES). The north and south tablets list the remaining 62 names. Names of the deceased are marked with a cross pattée symbol, and family groups are indicated by brackets and the letters “DO” as ditto marks under surnames.

The memorial is enclosed by small fence posts connected by chains, and three stone planters have been placed on the bottom step of the base.
