Heritage listing
Details The memorial stands on a small green area to the east of the Grade I-listed Church of St Andrew and in close proximity to a number of other listed buildings on Haughton Green. It takes the form of a tall stone Celtic cross rising from a tapered plinth. The plinth stands on a square step. The principal dedicatory inscription on the plinth reads IN GRATEFUL MEMORY/ OF THE 18 MEN OF BARMPTON,/ GREAT BURDON AND HAUGHTON-LE-SKERNE/ WHO BY THE GRACE OF GOD/ GAVE THEIR LIVES IN THE GREAT WAR/ 1914 – 1919./ THEIR BODIES ARE BURIED IN PEACE,/ BUT THEIR NAME LIVETH FOR EVERMORE. The commemorated names are recorded on the other sides of the plinth. This List entry has been amended to add the source for War Memorials Register.
