Description

The War Memorial at the Church of St John the Baptist in Ipswich is a First World War memorial dating to around 1920, with alterations made after the Second World War.

Constructed from Portland stone, the memorial features a 4.5-meter tall Celtic cross with an elongated shaft, set on a tapered four-sided plinth. The cross has a simple moulding along its edges and a central round boss. The plinth is elevated on two square steps, with a square base beneath them.

On the east side of the plinth, an inscription reads: "TO OUR MEN/ WHO FELL IN THE/ GREAT WAR/ 1914-1919/ LEST WE FORGET." Additionally, a rectangular stone tablet has been added to the first step, leaning against the east face of the plinth, which bears the inscription: "ALSO/ THOSE WHO DIED/ IN THE SERVICE/ OF OTHERS/ 1939-1945."
