Andover War Memorial

The stone cenotaph sits on a hexagonal base and is square on plan. It has a rusticated base, Tuscan corner pilasters, a dentil cornice and a stepped top. Each face of the monument is inscribed with the names of the Fallen with a wreath carved in relief above. The principal inscription reads, in capital letters: To honour / the memory / of those / men of Andover / who fell / in / the Great War / 1914-1920. The frieze is inscribed on all four sides, also in capitals: Our Glorious Dead/ Rest In Peace / But Their Name / Liveth For Evermore.

Flanking walls either side of the memorial bear the names of the Fallen from the Second World War. The central plaques on each wall read: 'Borough of Andover / to Honour the Memory / of those / who gave their Lives in the / Second World War 1939-1945', with the outer plaques bearing the names of the fallen.
