Langleybury War Memorial

Langleybury War Memorial is a First World War memorial with later additions for the Second World War, erected in 1919, with the names of those who fell in the Second World War added after 1945. It is carved from granite.

The memorial is located at the junction of Langleybury Lane and the A41, next to the churchyard of the Church of St Paul. It features a granite cross with a Celtic head and a tapering shaft that rises from a trapezoidal granite plinth and a three-tier stepped base. The cross and shaft are decorated with carved interlace and knotwork.

On the southeast face of the plinth, there is an inscription that reads: "TO THE HONOURED MEMORY OF THOSE BRAVE MEN OF THIS PARISH WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES FOR THEIR COUNTRY AND FOR THE CAUSE OF FREEDOM AND JUSTICE IN THE GREAT WAR 1914 – 1918 'THEIR NAME LIVETH FOR EVERMORE' NAMES."

The northwest face of the plinth has the inscription: "THE WORLD WAR 1939 – 1945 GREATER LOVE HATH NO MAN THAN THIS THAT A MAN LAY DOWN HIS LIFE FOR HIS FRIENDS. NAMES REST ETERNAL GRANT THEM O LORD AND LET LIGHT PERPETUAL SHINE UPON THEM."
