Heritage listing
Details The war memorial is set in the churchyard of the church of St Nicholas (Grade II), to the south-west of the path as it approaches the north door. Constructed of Portland stone, it consists of a rectangular sectioned tapering shaft rising from a two tier plinth on a three stepped pedestal standing on a square base. The shaft is surmounted by a wheel cross, and on the side of the shaft facing the church is a three quarter length relief carving of St George with a crusaders sword. At the base of the shaft on this side the following text is inscribed: TO THE GLORY OF GOD AND IN THANKFUL REMEMBRANCE OF THESE WHO FELL IN THE GREAT WAR THEIR NAME LIVETH FOR EVERMORE. The names of those who died in the First and Second World Wars are inscribed on the faces of the top tier of the plinth; the single name of the casualty of the Korean War is inscribed on the lower tier.
