Description
The Radnage War Memorial, built in 1920, is situated in a small garden north of Mudds Bank, to the east of Lea Cottage. It is made of limestone and features a cross that rises from a tapering square base. The shaft of the cross has a round head with marginal moulding and a croix pattée in relief. Beneath the cross is an incised, painted inscription that reads: ‘TO THE / GLORY OF GOD / AND IN / SACRED MEMORY OF / THE GALLANT MEN OF / RADNAGE / WHO DIED IN THE / - GREAT WARS / 1914-1918 / 1939-1945’. The plinth lists the names of 11 soldiers who lost their lives in the First World War, along with their rank and regiment, and the names of four soldiers who died in the Second World War. The memorial is set on a paved area with stone edgings.
