Description
First World War memorial.
DESCRIPTION: Coney Weston War Memorial is 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 of polished, grey granite and takes the form of a plain wheel-head cross with a tapering, four-sided shaft and moulded foot. This rises from a tapering, four-sided plinth which surmounts a single-step chamfered base. The whole stands on a two-stepped concrete foundation. All lettering is incised, painted gold.
The inscription and names are recorded 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/ (7 NAMES).
The memorial is enclosed by eight wooden posts joined by chains.
- Pursuant to s1 (5A) of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 (‘the Act’) it is declared that these aforementioned features are not of special architectural or historic interest.
