Brisley War Memorial

Brisley War Memorial is located in the churchyard of St Bartholomew’s Church, Church Street, Brisley, Norfolk. It is prominently situated by the churchyard path leading to the church entrance. It comprises a Latin stone cross atop a tapering shaft, which stands on a tall plinth with deep, moulded cornice and recessed inscription panels, beneath which is a two-stepped stone base. The plinth carries the inscriptions.

The inscription on the front face of the plinth is in incised lettering and reads TO THE GLORY/ OF GOD/ AND IN MEMORY OF/ BRISLEY MEN/ FALLEN/ IN THE GREAT WAR/ 1914 – 1918/ AND/ 1939 – 1945/ THEIR NAME/ LIVETH/ FOR EVERMORE/ (NAMES). Two other faces of the plinth also carry the names of the fallen.
