Description

Chicheley War Memorial is located on the east side of the junction of Hall Lane and Newport Road, approximately 36 meters south of Home Farmhouse, which is also a listed building. The memorial is surrounded by a curved hedge at the back and has posts with a chain at the front. Standing about 4 meters tall, the stone memorial features a Latin cross that rises from a moulded collar atop an octagonal shaft. The base of the cross shaft is moulded and sits on a three-tiered octagonal base, which is elevated on a low, two-stepped octagonal plinth.

The main dedicatory inscription is incised around the upper tier of the base and reads: "IN GRATEFUL AND PROUD MEMORY OF THE MEN OF CHICHELEY WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES IN THE WAR 1914-1919." The names of the fallen are carved into the faces of the middle tier, with one name on each face, along with the year of their death.
