Description
The Deeping St Nicholas war memorial is located in the churchyard of St Nicholas Church, to the south-west of the path leading to the north door. Made of Portland stone, the memorial features a rectangular tapering shaft that rises from a two-tier plinth on a three-stepped pedestal, which sits on a square base. At the top of the shaft is a wheel cross. On the side of the shaft facing the church, there is a three-quarter length relief carving of St George holding a crusader's sword. Inscribed at the base of the shaft on this side is the text: "TO THE GLORY OF GOD AND IN THANKFUL REMEMBRANCE OF THESE WHO FELL IN THE GREAT WAR THEIR NAME LIVETH FOR EVERMORE." The names of those who died in the First and Second World Wars are engraved on the faces of the top tier of the plinth, while the name of the casualty from the Korean War is inscribed on the lower tier.
