Description
The Saxlingham Nethergate War Memorial is a war memorial designed by F W Troup and unveiled in 1921, dedicated to those who fell and survived during the First World War.
The memorial features a square-plan roofed structure that includes a central market cross, set on a tapered stone plinth with a red brick base and a raised platform. The pyramidal roof is covered with pin tiles and constructed from an oak frame, supported by red brick corner piers. A bronze plaque on the central stone plinth displays the names of 16 local men who died in the First World War. Additionally, the outer faces of the north-east and south-east corner piers have stone slabs inscribed with the names of 81 local men who served and survived the war. Each of the east and west sides of the platform has three segmental red brick steps, which were replaced around 1990. The memorial is prominently situated on a triangular green at the junction of The Street, Pitt’s Hill, and Church Hill.
