Description
The Tetford War Memorial is a stone monument dedicated to those who served in the First World War, erected in 1921 by bricklayer William Camplin. It features a marble table with an inscription, topped by a pinnacle and orb.
The memorial has an octagonal spired design, with a tapering base below a plinth. At each corner, there are columns and capitals, with each of the four columns supporting a triangular pediment that has a cross at its apex. The center of the monument is crowned with a pinnacle and orb.
The white marble tablet bears the inscription: ‘TO/ THE GLORY/ OF GOD/ AND/ IN LOVING MEMORY/ OF/ THOSE WHO GAVE THEIR/ LIVES/ IN THE GREAT EUROPEAN WAR/ 1914 - 1918/ AT REST/ GREATER LOVE HATH/ NO MAN THAN THIS,/ THAT A MAN LAY DOWN/ HIS LIFE FOR HIS FRIENDS/ NAMES.’ Additionally, it commemorates one life lost in World War Two, with the inscription: ‘THIS MONUMENT IS DEDICATED/ 1939-1945.’
