Description

War Memorial commemorating the fallen of the First World War, erected around 1920, prominently sited within the churchyard to the north of All Saints Church. It is executed in marble and takes the form of an obelisk, set on a two-tiered plinth within a square enclosure defined by low marble posts, linked by chains. The upper edge of the plinth's top tier is moulded, whilst that to the lower tier carries a simple chamfer. To the front of the enclosure, set either side of the approach to the memorial are two small urns.

The upper tier bears the names of the fallen in leaded lettering. These are replicated within the church on a hand-written wall-hung Roll of Honour.
