Description
The Strelley War Memorial is a First World War memorial made of sandstone, located in the extended churchyard on the south-west side of Main Street, opposite the Church of All Saints.
The memorial features a canopied calvary design, with a circular three-stepped base and a square, moulded pedestal. This pedestal has four recessed limestone tablets that bear inscriptions. One side of the memorial reads: "REMEMBER BEFORE GOD/ THE GALLANT DEAD WHOSE NAMES/ ARE WRITTEN HERE THOUGH THEIR/ BODIES LIE IN OTHER LANDS/ AUGUST 1914-1918/ GRANT THEM O LORD ETERNAL REST/ AND LET LIGHT PERPETUAL SHINE/ UPON THEM." Another side states: "THEY LOVED NOT/ THEIR LIVES UNTO/ THE DEATH." The remaining two sides include dedications to four men, detailing their names, ranks, ages, places and dates of death, and burial locations.
