Description
The Tittensor War Memorial is a stone structure approximately 2 meters tall, tapering and rectangular in shape, set on a York stone paved area with a two-stepped base. At the top, it features a low pyramidal cap. The east face of the pylon is decorated with a carved wreath in relief, and below it, an incised inscription reads "TO THE GLORY OF GOD AND IN MEMORY OF THE BRAVE MEN FROM THIS CHURCH & PARISH WHO FELL IN THE GREAT WAR" followed by the names of nine men, which include their ranks. At the base of the pylon on the east side, the years "1914 – 1918" are carved.
On the south face of the pylon, there is another incised inscription that states "IN GRATEFUL MEMORY OF THOSE FROM THE PARISH OF TITTENSOR WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES IN THE SECOND WORLD WAR," listing four names without ranks. Below this inscription, the years "1939 – 1945" are also inscribed at the foot of the pylon.
