Description
First World War memorial, 1921, with Second World War additions.
DESCRIPTION: Winterbourne War Memorial is located in the south-west corner of the churchyard of the Church of St Michael and All Angels (Grade II-listed).
It takes the form of a granite cross pattée above a moulded collar on a tall, tapering shaft with chamfered edges and stops. This rises from a tapering, four-sided plinth on an octagonal base.
The main inscription and names are incised on the western face of the plinth, which reads, FROM THE 3 WINTERBOURNES/ WHO DIED IN THE GREAT WAR/ 1914 – 1918/ "THEIR NAME LIVETH FOR EVERMORE." The names of 21 servicemen who died are recorded above the inscription.
A wedge-shaped stone tablet has been placed against the base of the memorial on its western side and bears an inscription in leaded lettering, which reads 1939 – 1945/ (6 NAMES).
