Description
The Great Melton War Memorial is a stone structure located in a triangular greensward at the junction of two lanes. The memorial features a cross that is set on a tapered, chamfered, smooth shaft, which stands on a roughly dressed stone plinth. The cross has a moulded base, and its arms are encircled with a stone roundel. Access to the memorial is provided by four flights of steps, which are also roughly dressed to match the plinth. On the rise of the uppermost steps, the words are carved on each side: "SONS OF THIS PLACE/LET THIS OF YOU BE SAID/THAT YOU WHO LIVE/ARE WORTHY OF YOUR DEAD."
