Winchcombe and Sudeley War Memorial

The Winchcombe and Sudeley War Memorial is a war memorial erected in 1920 by F L M Griggs, with additional commemorations for the Second World War and later 20th-century conflicts. It is made of Portland stone and is prominently located on Abbey Terrace, a main route through Winchcombe.

The memorial features a simple Latin cross atop a tall, tapered octagonal shaft, which is set on an octagonal plinth resting on a three-stepped base. The north-west face of the plinth is inscribed in sans serif lettering with the words: "TO THE GLORIOUS MEMORY OF THE MEN FROM THE PARISHES OF WINCHCOMBE AND SUDELEY WHO FELL IN THE GREAT WAR." Above this inscription, within a carved laurel wreath, are the dates 1914 and 1918. The other faces of the plinth display the names of the Fallen, along with a dedication to those who lost their lives in the Second World War, which reads: "ALSO TO THE GLORIOUS MEMORY OF THOSE WHO FELL IN THE SECOND WORLD WAR 1939-1945 WHOSE NAMES ARE INSCRIBED BELOW" followed by the names. The lower section of the plinth also includes the names of men who died in later 20th-century conflicts.

In more recent times, bollards have been added at each corner to protect the memorial from vehicular traffic.
