Description
The Hampton War Memorial is a First World War memorial that was erected around 1920 and later altered following the Second World War. It is constructed from grey and pink granite.
The memorial features a small Celtic-style wheel cross on top of a tall, tapering shaft. The main section of the base is made of pink granite and includes the inscription, "LEST WE FORGET/ THESE MEN MADE THE SUPREME SACRIFICE/ (NAMES)/ R.I.P". There is an additional inscription on the side that reads, "SERVED IN H.M FORCES/ DURING THE GREAT WAR, 1914 - 1918/ (NAMES)".
The base is set on a stepped plinth, which bears the inscription, "1939 - 1945/ (NAMES)".
