Description

The Eastington War Memorial is located in the northern part of the churchyard of St Michael and All Angels, which is a Grade II* listed building. The memorial features a wheel-head limestone cross on a tapering, octagonal shaft, which is mounted on a square, two-tier plinth. The transition from the cross to the shaft is adorned with carved foliage.

On the front of the upper plinth, there is an inscription that reads: "TO THE GLORY OF GOD/ AND IN LOVING MEMORY OF (NAMES) AND OTHER OFFICERS & MEN CONNECTED WITH/ THIS PARISH WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES/ FOR KING & COUNTRY/ IN THE GREAT WAR 1914-1918." The names of those who died are listed on the side panels. The rear of the memorial is inscribed with: "SACRED ALSO TO THE MEMORY OF/ THOSE WHO FELL IN THE/ 1939-1945 WAR./ (NAMES)."

Additionally, the inscriptions and the names of all those commemorated are also displayed on bronze panels that are fixed horizontally around the top of the lower plinth.
