Description

Coney Weston War Memorial is a First World War memorial located at the roadside in front of Coney Weston village hall. To the north-east of the memorial is the Grade II-listed Coney Weston House.

The memorial is made of polished grey granite and features a plain wheel-head cross with a tapering, four-sided shaft and moulded foot. This shaft rises from a tapering, four-sided plinth that sits on a single-step chamfered base. The entire structure stands on a two-stepped concrete foundation. All lettering on the memorial is incised and painted gold.

The inscription and names are displayed on the north face of the plinth, which reads: "IN GRATEFUL MEMORY OF THOSE MEN OF THIS PARISH WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES IN THE GREAT WAR 1914–1918" followed by seven names.

The memorial is surrounded by eight wooden posts connected by chains.
