Description
The Bromley (St Peter and St Paul's) War Memorial is a First World War memorial built in 1921, located in the churchyard of St Peter’s and St Paul’s Church, which is a Grade II*-listed building. The memorial is surrounded by a high beech hedge within a small garden.
Constructed from Portland stone, the memorial features a carved lantern-cross with sculpted figures of St George, Victory, St Michael, and Peace on each of its faces. The lantern sits atop a tapering column that has a moulded cap and base, rising from an octagonal plinth. This entire structure rests on a cruciform-shaped base. The inscriptions are carved in relief on three sides of the plinth.
The first side bears the dedication: "IN MEMORY OF THE/ MEN FROM THIS/ CHURCH AND PARISH/ WHO GAVE THEIR/ LIVES IN THE GREAT WAR OF/ 1914 – 1919." The second side reads: "MAKE THEM TO BE/ NUMBERED WITH/ THY SAINTS IN/ GLORY EVERLASTING." The final face states: "THEIR NAMES ARE/ RECORDED ON A/ TABLET IN THE/ CHURCH."
