Description
The Exmouth War Memorial is a Grade II listed structure made of granite. It features a four-stepped octagonal stone base topped by a chamfered granite cross on a square plinth. At the base of the cross, there are two inscriptions: one commemorating those who died in World War I, stating "IN 1914-19/IN MEMORY/OF OUR BRAVE MEN WHO/GAVE THEIR LIVES FOR US/'IS IT NOTHING TO YOU/ALL YE THAT PASS BY'", and another for World War II, which reads "1939-1945/'WE WILL REMEMBER THEM'". This memorial serves as a poignant reminder of the impact of significant world events on the local community and showcases skilled design and craftsmanship.
