Description
MATERIALS: Cornish granite.
DESCRIPTION: The memorial consists of a wheel-head cross set on a tapered plinth which itself stands on a square base. The memorial has a total height of 2.6m.
An inscription in applied metal lettering on the north face of the plinth reads 1914-1918/ IN MEMORY OF/ THE MEN OF THIS VILLAGE/ WHO AT THE CALL OF DUTY/ GAVE THEIR LIVES/ FOR THEIR COUNTRY/ FAITHFUL UNTO DEATH.
On the west, south and east faces of the plinth are the names of the 21 men who died in the First World War. On the north side in front of the base a stone plaque set into the ground has a carved wreath and is inscribed with applied metal lettering 1939 1945/ "WE WILL REMEMBER THEM". Two vertical panels of laurel leaves in low relief flank the names of the 14 men who died in that conflict.
