Morley War Memorial Cross with flint and brick front enclosure wall and steps

The Morley War Memorial Cross is a Cornish granite structure located in an enclosure on the south-east side of the junction of Deopham Road and St Peter’s Hill. The memorial features an approximately 3-meter tall rough-hewn wheel-head cross that stands on a tapering plinth. This plinth is set on a single-stepped base, which is square in shape. Inscriptions are displayed on the plinth.

The main dedicatory inscription on the front face of the plinth reads: "TO OUR GLORIOUS DEAD/ IN HONOURED MEMORY OF THE MEN OF/ THE PARISHES OF MORLEY WHO FELL IN/ THE GREAT WAR 1914 - 1918/ (NAMES)." A later dedication for the Second World War is found on the north-east face of the plinth, stating: "ALSO OF THOSE WHO DIED IN/ THE WAR OF 1939 - 1945/ (NAMES)."

The memorial is raised above road level and is enclosed by a flint cobble retaining wall with red brick dressings, topped with a course of half-round black engineering bricks that support railings. Access to the enclosure is provided by a rake of four steps leading up to a gate. The metal railings and gate are noted as not being of special architectural or historic interest.
