Description
War memorial of 1920, designed by Messrs A and F Manulle.
MATERIALS: rough-hewn granite.
DESCRIPTION: the memorial stands on a grassy knoll, shaded by an oak tree, and opposite the village Green. The base of the memorial is a simple rectangular plinth set directly into the grass. A battered section then rises from the plinth upon which stands a sturdy pylon topped with a perforated Celtic wheel cross. On the base of the front of the memorial metal letters on a polished stone face spell out the inscription TO THE GLORIOUS MEMORY/OF THOSE IN THIS PARISH/WHO FELL IN THE GREAT WAR/1914-1919. The names of those commemorated are displayed on the side faces, again in metal lettering on a polished stone, with two additions from the Second World War.
