Description
The war memorial, located approximately 20 metres north of the Church of St Erth, was erected in the early 20th century by Helen Carter in memory of her husband, Herbert Augustine Carter, who was awarded the Victoria Cross for his service with the 101st Grenadier Indian Army and died on January 13th, 1916, while on active service in British East Africa. The memorial features a tapered freestone shaft topped with a carved freestone crucifixion. The shaft stands on an inscribed plinth, which is set upon a large stepped base. The base and plinth are square in shape, while the shaft is octagonal, with four of its sides displaying stop-chamfers.
