Burnham Deepdale War Memorial Shrine

The Burnham Deepdale War Memorial Shrine is located in the south-west corner of the churchyard of the Church of St Mary, which is also listed at Grade II*. The shrine is built against the churchyard wall and features a gabled brick design. It has a plain Gothic arch entrance that faces into the churchyard, while the upper part of the back wall creates a blind arched alcove.

Inside the shrine, there is a white marble plaque mounted on the rear wall, topped with a Calvary. The square-headed marble plaque has a moulded foot and commemorates the dead from both World Wars. The dedicatory inscription reads: "IN HONOUR/ AND LOVING MEMORY OF/ THE MEN FROM/ DEEPDALE & STAITHE,/ WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES/ IN THE GREAT WAR./ (13 NAMES)/ 1939 - 1945/ “REST ETERNAL GRANT TO THEM O LORD”/ (3 NAMES)." The names are arranged in order of the year of death.

In the alcove at the back, a bronze plaque is set within a timber frame, which has a shelf at the top where a small stepped cross is placed, inscribed with "IN HOC VINCES." On either side of the cross, there are iron lamp supports. The inscription on the bronze plaque reads: "ROLL OF HONOUR OF THE MEN FROM DEEPDALE AND STAITHE/ WHO SERVED IN THE GREAT WAR/ 1914 - 1918/ (90 NAMES)," with the names listed alphabetically, starting with the Navy and followed by the Army.

The rear of the shrine is enclosed by iron railings, providing protection from the verge and pavement.
