Description

First World War memorial, 1922.

MATERIALS: grey granite.

DESCRIPTION: the war memorial is situated at a small junction on the A689, where it is prominently situated facing the road and visible to those passing by. It comprises a rough-hewn Latin cross with Celtic knot-work carving to the head and the short shaft. The cross sits upon a plinth formed out of a rough-hewn block, whose smoothed face carries the inscription on the right side, and a relief-carved sheathed sword through a wreath on the left side. The memorial is situated upon a rusticated base. The inscription in incised and blacked lettering reads:

IN HONOUR / OF THE MEN / OF NENTHALL / WHO FELL IN THE / GREAT WAR / 1914 - 1918 / (Names)
