Description
The Little Addington War Memorial is located in the north-east corner of the churchyard of the Grade I-listed church of St Mary, overlooking the village street. The memorial features a medieval-style stone cross that stands approximately 4 meters high, mounted on a shaft and a plinth with heavily chamfered top corners.
The plinth has an inscription carved in relief that reads: "TO THE GLORY OF GOD AND IN MEMORY OF THOSE WHO DIED IN DEFENCE OF THEIR COUNTRY AND THEIR COUNTRY'S HONOUR." The names of nine men who died in the First World War are inscribed on the other sides of the plinth.
Additionally, a separate stone plaque was added alongside the memorial to commemorate the Second World War, recording the names of five men from the village who died between 1940 and 1947.
