Description

First World War memorial, 1920.

MATERIALS: grey Scottish granite

DESCRIPTION: the memorial is prominently situated outside the village hall facing the main road through the settlement and visible from the road. It takes the form of a wheel head Celtic cross with a central boss surrounded by knot work carvings, which continue on to the uppermost and lowermost sections of the shaft. The latter is tapering and bears inscriptions in leaded lettering, atop a two-tiered moulded base. The inscription is in leaded lettering on the front face of the base and reads: TO THE MEN OF THIS PARISH/ WHO SERVED IN THE WAR/ 1914-1918. The names of the two Fallen are listed by surname at the top of the shaft, and underneath are listed the names of those who served and returned.
