Description
The Cossall Waterloo Memorial is a stone and white marble structure erected in 1877, located in the churchyard of St Catherine’s Church.
The memorial features a rectangular stone base and a stepped, chamfered square platform made of white marble. Atop this platform stands an octagonal column of white marble, which is encircled by a laurel wreath and topped with a carved leaf finial. At the base, also crafted from white marble, is a carved plumed helmet, breastplate, and crossed sabres representing a Life Guardsman. The plinth of the memorial bears the inscription: "WATERLOO / THIS MONUMENT IS ERECTED/ TO THE MEMORY OF/ JOHN SHAW &/ RICHARD WAPLINGTON,/ OF THE/ LIFE GUARDS,/ AND/ THOMAS WHEATLEY,/ OF THE/ LIGHT DRAGOON GUARDS,/ WHO LEFT THEIR NATIVE HOME/ IN DEFENCE OF THEIR COUNTRY,/ THE TWO/ FORMER GLORIOUSLY/ FELL AT WATERLOO, THE LATTER/ RETURNED, AND LIES BURIED IN/ THIS CHURCH/ YARD/ VALOUR."
