Description
The Barrington War Memorial is located on a small triangular green next to the south entrance of the churchyard of All Saints’ Church, which is a Grade I listed building. The memorial stands approximately 4 meters tall and features a gabled calvary with a small metal figure of Christ on top of a hexagonal Doulting stone shaft. This shaft rises from a square plinth with chamfered corners, which is set on a three-stage, octagonal sandstone base.
The plinth is inscribed on one side with the words: "IN MEMORY OF THE MEN OF THIS VILLAGE WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES IN THE GREAT WAR FROM 1914 TO 1918 AND IN GRATITUDE FOR THEIR SACRIFICE R. I. P." The second side lists names, while the third side states: "THE WORLD WAR" followed by names and "DIED WHILE ON ACTIVE SERVICE 1939 – 1945." Additional names have been added for later losses.
The memorial is enclosed by a chain link fence mounted on short concrete posts.
