Description
The Salthouse War Memorial is a First World War memorial, erected around 1920, with additions for the Second World War and the Korean War. It is made of limestone and is located in the churchyard of the Church of St Nicholas on Cross Street in Salthouse, Norfolk. The memorial is prominently placed on the approach to the church porch and overlooks the settlement from a hillside.
It features a 3-meter tall Latin cross on a collared shaft, which stands on a square plinth that is set atop a pentagonal two-tiered base. The lower tier of the base is deep, with a cornice and a moulded foot. The plinth is inscribed with incised lettering that reads: "TO THE GLORY OF GOD/ AND IN MEMORY OF/ THE MEN OF SALTHOUSE/ WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES/ DURING TWO WORLD WARS/ AND IN KOREA/ THEIR NAME LIVETH FOR/ EVERMORE// 1914 – 1918/ (NAMES)// 1914 – 1918 (NAMES)// 1939 – 1945/ (NAMES)/ KOREA 1950 – 53/ (NAME)."
