Description
The Bardney War Memorial is located at the junction of Horncastle Road and Silver Street in Bardney. It is made of polished red Aberdeen granite and features iron railings. The memorial consists of a cross with a carved collar on a tapering octagonal shaft, which stands on a two-stepped square plinth. This plinth rises from a two-stepped base, with each section having a moulded top.
The front face of the top section of the plinth is inscribed with the words: "TO THE GLORY OF GOD / AND IN GRATEFUL MEMORY OF / THE MEN OF BARDNEY / WHO FELL IN THE WORLD'S WAR / 1914 – 1919 / ALSO A TRIBUTE TO THOSE WHO / SERVED THEIR KING AND COUNTRY." Below this, the second section reads "NAMES OF THE FALLEN / (NAMES)," with the names continuing onto the front of the first step. The tread of the second step reads "ALSO THOSE WHO FELL IN THE 1939 – 1945 WAR."
On the right-hand side of the plinth, there is an inscription that states "NAMES OF THE MEN WHO SERVED / (NAMES)." The names are also inscribed on the rear and left-hand sides of the memorial. The right-hand side of the top step reads "LEST WE FORGET," and the front face of the second step is inscribed with "ERECTED BY PUBLIC SUBSCRIPTION." All inscriptions are highlighted with white paint.
The memorial is surrounded by ornate low wrought iron railings.
