Description
Hardley War Memorial is situated in the churchyard of the Church of St Margaret, which is a Grade I-listed building. The memorial is prominently located beside the churchyard path, next to the north porch of the church. It features a stone wheel head cross with knot-work carved in low relief on the cross face, and the monogram IHS at the center. This cross stands on a tapering plinth with a two-stepped, square base. The phrase "THEIR NAME LIVETH FOR EVERMORE" is incised in a scroll shape on the front face of the cross shaft.
The main dedicatory inscription is also incised on the front face of the plinth, which reads "IN MEMORY OF THE MEN OF/ HARDLEY./ WHO LAID DOWN THEIR LIVES IN THE/ GREAT WAR 1914 – 1919./ (7 NAMES)." Below this, on the riser of the top step, is the phrase "MAY THEY REST IN PEACE."
