Hardwick War Memorial

The Hardwick War Memorial is located next to the Church of St Mary, which is also listed at Grade II*. It is constructed from Clipsham stone and features a Latin cross adorned with carved Gothic elements, including fleur-de-lis at the intersection of the cross arms. The moulded foot of the cross rises from a tall octagonal shaft, which is set on a chamfered octagonal plinth. This plinth is elevated on two octagonal steps that form a broad octagonal base. The base includes a shallow cornice designed for placing floral tributes.

On the front face of the plinth, there is an inscription that reads "1914 – 1918 / + TO THE / GLORY OF / GOD & IN / MEMORY OF / THOSE WHO LAID DOWN THEIR / LIVES IN THE GREAT WAR." The top step lists the names of 12 men who died in the First World War, with all inscriptions incised and carved in a Celtic-style typeface.
