Description
The Kenwyn War Memorial is a war memorial that was unveiled on 27 June 1920, honoring those who died in service during the First and Second World Wars. It is made of Cornish granite stone and features raised metal lettering.
The memorial has a square base topped by a tapered plinth, a shaft, and a wheel cross decorated in a Celtic style. The dedication is found within a recessed panel on the west face of the plinth, which reads ‘1914-1918/ KENWYN/ WAR MEMORIAL/ ALSO/ 1939-1948/ (the names of Second World War casualties)/ LEST WE FORGET'. The names of those who died in the First World War are inscribed on the north and south faces of the plinth.
