Thorpe St Peter War Memorial

The Thorpe St Peter War Memorial is situated in the churchyard of St Peter's Church, which is a Grade I listed building. The memorial stands next to the path, facing the entrance to the churchyard, and is made of Portland stone, measuring approximately 2.7 meters tall. It features a square base with a two-stage plinth that is square in shape. On top of the plinth sits a square pedestal capped with a quadripartite gable, from which a small wheel-head cross rises at the top.

The pedestal has inscriptions on three sides, while the plinth has inscriptions on two sides. The west face of the pedestal, which faces the churchyard gates, reads: "TO THE GLORY OF GOD AND IN MEMORY OF THE MEN FROM THORPE ST PETER WHO FELL IN THE GREAT WAR 1914 – 1919," with "LEST WE FORGET" inscribed on the plinth below. The south face of the pedestal lists the names of nine men who died in the First World War, along with the inscription "GREATER LOVE HATH NO MAN THAN THIS" on the plinth below. The north face of the pedestal commemorates one individual with the inscription: "AND THIS MAN FELL IN THE SECOND GREAT WAR 1939 – 1945."
