Description

First World War memorial cross.

DESCRIPTION: Hainford war memorial is located to the south-west corner of the churchyard in close proximity to the Grade II listed Church of All Saints; a path extends to the memorial from the main pathway to the church.

It comprises a stone Calvary cross with canopy, atop an octagonal shaft with a carved collar and square base. The shaft rises from a square plinth which is chamfered at the top and stands on a chamfered foot. The whole surmounts a wide, square stone base with moulded cap and chamfered foot.

INSCRIPTION: the plinth carries the inscription and names in incised lettering. The principal inscription is to the front (west face) and reads: IN MEMORY OF/ THE BRAVE MEN OF THIS PARISH/ WHO DIED IN THE GREAT WAR/ 1914-1919/ MAY THEY REST IN PEACE. The names of the 25 men who died are listed on the remaining faces of the plinth.
