Description

White marble statue of a winged Victory, supported on a tapering pier of polished dark grey granite. The pier is on a 3-tier base, each tier with a chamfered top edge. Stepped and moulded capstone. The names of those who died are listed on the 4 sides of the pier in gold lettering. At the top of the S (front) side, is an inscription 1914 - 1918, and on the top tier of the base 'To the everlasting memory of those who fell in the Great War'. A small bronze wreath is attached to the bottom tier of the base. The pier is set within a small square enclosure formed by polished granite kerb stones on edge. Upright granite slabs to the cut-away angles, and a later slab to the N side. The S kerb of the enclosure reads '1939 - 1945' and 'To the memory of those who fell in the Second World War'. The names of those who died are listed on the 4 slabs at the angles. The N slab is to those who died in action in conflicts after the Second World War.
