The War Memorial

The War Memorial in Culmstock was erected around 1919 to honor the parishioners who died in the First World War. It is constructed from granite ashlar and features a bronze plaque. The memorial has a square section shaft that stands on a moulded base with a single step plinth. At the top of the shaft is a moulded cap that includes a modillion frieze, supporting a tall obelisk. A bronze plaque is affixed to the front face of the shaft, which faces down the Strand, listing the names of the war dead from the parish. Additionally, a bronze laurel wreath is attached to the front of the obelisk.
