Description
The Howgill War Memorial is a First World War memorial built in 1920. It is made of marble and faces north-east towards the west door of the church. The memorial features a stone wheel head cross that is raised on a square plinth with a shallow raised upper surface and a single-stepped square base. The ends of the cross are indented, and the wheel head is designed to resemble a carved laurel wreath. At the intersection of the cross, there is an intaglio carved circular boss. The north-east face of the shaft has an inscription in incised lettering that reads: THE/ GREAT WAR/ 1914-1918/ IN MEMORY/ OF THE/ HOWGILL/ LADS/ WHO DIED/ THAT WE/ MIGHT LIVE. The names of the Fallen are inscribed on the plinth, along with the phrase: ERECTED BY PUBLIC SUBSCRIPTION.
