Description
The Great Coates First World War Memorial is a memorial erected in 1920 on the former Reading Room and re-erected on the Village Nursery School in 2017. It is made of marble and takes the form of an aediculed inscription tablet featuring scrolled brackets, an apron, recessed panelled pilasters, and a broken triangular pediment. The memorial frames a marble tablet that lists the names of 57 men and 1 woman. In the tympanum, there is a relief of a Latin cross flanked by the dates 1914 and 1919. Below this is the inscription ‘FAITHFUL UNTO DEATH’, which is followed by the names of the six men who died. Further down, the inscription ‘FOR KING AND COUNTRY’ precedes the names of 56 men and 1 woman who served and returned.
