Description
The Great Stukeley War Memorial is located in the churchyard of St. Bartholomew’s Church. It features a limestone cross with Hopton Wood limestone panels. The memorial consists of a Patonce cross-head atop a tapering octagonal shaft, which has a moulded collar and base. This shaft rises from a square plinth that has moulded top and bottom edges.
One face of the plinth has a recessed panel inscribed with: "TO THE GLORY OF GOD AND IN MEMORY OF (NAMES) OF THIS PARISH WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES FOR THEIR COUNTRY IN THE GREAT WAR 1914 – 1918 TRUE LOVE BY LIFE, TRUE BY DEATH IS TRIED LIVE THOU FOR ENGLAND, FOR ENGLAND WE DIED." Above this inscription, in raised lettering at the top of the plinth, it reads: "THEIR DUTY DONE."
Additionally, a small panel commemorating the Second World War is fixed to another face of the memorial, which reads: "1939 – 1945 (NAMES)."
