Description

The Hayton War Memorial, unveiled in 1921 and designed by Sharpe and Hoggard of Retford, is a stone obelisk that stands 2 meters high. The base of the obelisk flares out to form a plinth, which rests on a low stone base. The lower part of the obelisk features an inscription that reads: "ERECTED BY THE PARISHIONERS OF HAYTON WITH TILN IN GRATEFUL MEMORY OF THE YOUNG MEN FROM THIS PARISH WHO FELL IN THE GREAT WAR 1914 – 1918." Below this, on the plinth, the inscription continues with (NAMES)/ DECEMBER 1920/ ‘GREATER LOVE HATH NO MAN THAN THIS THAT HE LAY DOWN HIS LIFE FOR HIS FRIENDS’ JOHN 15.13.
