Description
The Stockwell War Memorial is a war memorial designed by Frank T Dear in 1920 and was unveiled on 3rd May 1922 by Princess Alice Countess of Athlone. It is built in a Neo Grecian style and stands 45 feet high on a plinth made of Portland stone, which has been altered towards the base. The front features a relief figure of Remembrance dressed in Greek mourning attire, accompanied by the inscription "To the Stockwell men who served in the Great War."
Double doors are set within a moulded architrave, with the year '1914' to the left and '1919' to the right. Each face of the memorial is adorned with a moulded cornice and corner pilasters, which include a mutule frieze and an anthemion motif at the base. Each side of the memorial has a clock face, with a cornice supported by brackets above. Three sides feature rectangular windows with leaded lights. A raised Greek key band separates the tower from the plinth, which includes nine panels listing the names of the fallen.
