Description
The Bulwick War Memorial is located in the churchyard of the Grade I-listed St Nicholas’s church, overlooking the village street, the Grade II-listed Queen’s Head public house, and other listed buildings. It features a medieval-style limestone cross, approximately 7 meters tall, with a head that rises from a crown and displays a shield bearing the letters "HIS." The tapering shaft is mounted on a square plinth with scalloped corners and a chamfered base, which is supported by a substantial square base.
On the front of the plinth, the inscription reads in raised lettering: "TO THE GLORY OF GOD AND IN/ MEMORY OF BRAVE MEN WHO/ FROM THIS VILLAGE FELL IN/ THE GREAT WAR 1914-18." The names of eight fallen soldiers are inscribed on the two side faces, while the rear of the plinth bears the inscription "1939-45" along with two names beneath it.
