Description

The Cookham Dean War Memorial is located on the green in Cookham Dean, which is part of the commons of the Manor of Cookham, managed by the National Trust. The memorial features a small Latin cross that rises from a moulded collar atop a tapering shaft. At the intersection of the cross arms, there is a small shield on the front. The shaft is adorned with a fluted and beaded spiral pattern and is set on a small square stone pedestal. This pedestal is supported by a three-stage base, with each stage made of stone and brick, and the lowest stage incorporating knapped flint squares. Each stage has a slightly projecting step for placing wreaths. The memorial is positioned at the center of a round pavement made of cobbles and stone kerbs. The main dedicatory inscription on the pedestal reads "FOR GOD KING AND COUNTRY" and "FAITHFUL UNTO DEATH 1914-1918." The names of those who served in the Second World War are listed below the dates "1939 – 1945," while the names from the First World War are recorded on the middle stage of the base.

Next to the memorial is a wooden Millennium Seat, dedicated by the local Branch of the Royal British Legion, which reads “IN MEMORY OF OUR MEMBERS WHO HAVE NOW JOINED THEIR COMRADES.” This bench is not included in the listing.
