Description
The war memorial in the churchyard of the Church of Emmanuel in Leyton is a stone structure dedicated to the First World War, built in 1922. It is made of buff polished-granite and limestone. The memorial faces south-east and stands on a square limestone base. It features a polished-granite plinth topped with a tall, slender, tapering spire, which has a small limestone cross at its peak. The front and side faces of the plinth are inscribed with the names of local combatants who died in the First World War. The front face also includes the inscription: "TO / THE GLORY OF GOD / AND / THE MEMORY / OF THOSE THAT FELL IN / THE GREAT WAR / 1914-1918." Additionally, the memorial appears to bear the name of the stone masons, 'T JUDD & Co Sc', although the metal lettering has been removed, leaving only the outline.
