Edwinstowe and Clipstone War Memorial

The Edwinstowe and Clipstone War Memorial is a war memorial designed and built by Lidster and Bramer of Worksop, unveiled in December 1920 to honor those who fell in the First and Second World Wars.

This memorial is made of grey Cornish granite and features a Celtic cross with a tapered shaft, set on a two-stepped tapered plinth and a two-stepped base. It is surrounded by a square section of stone paving, with a stone ball finial at each corner. The front (north-east) side of the shaft has a painted inscription that reads: "TO THE / GLORY OF / GOD / AND IN / PROUD / MEMORY / OF THE MEN / OF / EDWINSTOWE / AND / CLIPSTONE / WHO FELL IN / THE / GREAT WAR / 1914 – 1918." The upper step of the plinth lists the 28 names of the fallen in two columns. The lower step has another painted inscription: "IN PROUD MEMORY OF THE MEN OF EDWINSTOWE / WHO FELL IN THE SECOND GREAT WAR 1939 – 1945," followed by the names of 14 fallen soldiers in two columns.

The memorial is located within a memorial garden at the corner of Church Street and Mansfield Road in Edwinstowe, enclosed by a low stone wall and stone piers. Access is provided from the north-east corner by a double-leaf metal gate and six stone steps.
