Description

Red sandstone column surmounted by a draped female figure of Art-Nouveau character holding two wreaths. There are three small brackets near the base of the column, on the back are the words: 'Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam' and on the front the names of the dead. This is set before a curved seating recess formed by a red sandstone wall with a stone seat supported by brackets. The wall terminates on each side with piers with ball finials on which are carved respectively the dates 1914 and 1918 beneath which have been added the dates 1939 and 1945. Above the seat are the following inscriptions: 'In Grateful remembrance of the Men of this parish Who Gave Their Lives in the Great War'; 'All these were honoured in their generations and were the glory of their times. Ecclesiasticus XLIV-VII'. The lettering is of particularly fine quality throughout.
