Probus War Memorial

The Probus War Memorial is a war memorial cross built in 1921 by Canon Holroyd Mills. It is made of granite stone, featuring a sandstone lantern at the top.

The memorial stands as a freestanding lantern cross on an octagonal two-stepped base and plinth. The shaft is tapering and octagonal, topped with a lantern cross that includes a calvary and decorative mouldings. The faces of the lantern are adorned with carved images of St George, St Probus, St Grace, and Christ on the Cross. The steps and base are fitted with engraved slate plaques that bear inscriptions. The north face reads: "TO THE GLORY OF GOD/ & IN MEMORY/ OF BRAVE LIVES GIVEN FOR OTHERS/ IN THE GREAT WAR/ 1914 - 1919/ LET THOSE THAT COME/ AFTER SEE TO IT THAT THESE/ NAMES ARE NOT FORGOTTEN/ ALSO IN MEMORY OF THOSE WHO/ GAVE THEIR LIVES IN/ THE GREAT WAR/ 1939 – 1945." The other faces are inscribed with the names of the fallen.
