Description
The Tugby and Keythorpe War Memorial is a First World War memorial cross, built around 1920. It is made of limestone and is situated at the entrance to St Thomas a Becket Churchyard. The memorial features a wheel-head cross mounted on a two-tiered rusticated tapering plinth, which rests on a single-stepped base. The carefully crafted faces of the plinth display incised inscriptions that read, ‘TO THE GLORY OF GOD / AND IN MEMORY OF THE FOLLOWING / MEN FROM THIS PARISH WHO GAVE / THEIR LIVES FOR KING AND COUNTRY / IN THE GREAT WAR 1914-1918’. The names of the eight soldiers who lost their lives are inscribed on the bottom tier, followed by the phrase ‘THEIR NAMES LIVETH FOR EVERMORE’.
