Description

The Harlington War Memorial is a stone Celtic cross dedicated to the First World War, with later additions for the Second World War. It features a tall stone cross that stands on a three-step base, which is set upon a trapezoidal plinth and a stone platform. The front face of the middle step has the inscription: "TO THE GLORY OF GOD." The front face of the plinth is inscribed: "THIS MONUMENT IS ERECTED / IN PROUD AND LOVING MEMORY OF THE MEN FROM THIS PARISH / WHO FELL IN THE GREAT WAR 1914 - 1918 / (names, in three columns)." The back face of the plinth reads: "AND OF THOSE WHO GAVE / THEIR LIVES IN / THE SECOND WORLD WAR 1939-1945 / (NAMES) / KOREA 1951 / (NAME)."

Local climate

Harlington War Memorial sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 700 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 91% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 86% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 29 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 67% of listed buildings. Of these, 12 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
