World War II war memorial in the churchyard of St John the Baptist

The memorial stands in the churchyard to the north of the Grade II listed church, overlooking the intersection of Station and Sheepcote Roads. It consists of a low rectangular Portland stone pillar with chamfered corners, slightly projecting cap and rustication at the base. The north face of the pillar is recessed and bears a bronze tablet bearing the following inscription: TO THE/ ENDURING MEMORY/ OF/ THE MEN OF THE/ PARISH OF/ GREENHILL/ WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES/ IN THE/ CAUSE OF FREEDOM/ 1939-1945. The pillar stands on a slightly domed, three-tier, wide octagonal, stone-paved base.
