Description
The memorial stands in the village cemetery alongside the main footpath. Overall c3.5m tall, it comprises a Weldon limestone obelisk set on a square plinth, itself on a shallow two-stage base. The memorial stands on a small, square, area of paving, on which have been placed small flower holders.
Set into the front of the plinth is a grey marble panel inscribed SACRED/ TO THE MEMORY OF/ THE MEN OF THIS VILLAGE/ WHO FELL IN THE GREAT WAR,/1914 - 1918. The names of those who fell appear on similar panels to the plinth sides.
At the base of the obelisk an inset marble panel is inscribed SACRED/ TO THE MEMORY OF/ THE MEN OF THIS VILLAGE/ WHO FELL IN THE WAR/ 1939 - 1945. The names of those who fell in the Second World War appear on side panels around the base of the obelisk.
The small flower holders standing around the war memorial are not of special interest.
