Description
The Memorial Lychgate at All Saints Church in Plumpton Green was built in 1920. It is constructed from oak, wooden shingles, and stone and flint walls. The lychgate features a shallow hipped roof covered with wooden shingles, topped by a timber cross. The roof is supported by an oak frame with curved braces and cross-braces, standing on a timber wall plate. Supporting cross beams run around the underside of the roof and on the roadside, where they carry the carved inscription "O, ENTER YE HIS GATES WITH PRAISE."
The stone walls that support the timber structure are made of ashlar, with a carved pier at each corner and chamfered coping along their length. The main sections of the walls include inset flint panels. On the roadside, there is a pair of rustic timber gates held by wrought iron strap hinges. On the north side wall, a stone tablet bears the inscription "TO THE GLORY OF GOD AND IN HUMBLE THANKFULNESS FOR HIS GREAT MERCY IN GRANTING US PEACE NOV 11TH 1918 - JUN 28TH 1919." Above this tablet, a small painted timber plaque notes that the lychgate was re-roofed in 1991.
