Heritage listing

Details War Memorial Street Shrine, marble and granite wall plaque, unveiled October 1916. MATERIALS: marble and granite. A rectangular white marble plaque, attached to the side wall of 275 Hessle Road (which is not listed), approximately 2m above pavement level. The plaque is subdivided into three panels by two metal bands with fleur-de-lys finials, and intaglio carved flowers to each corner. The two outer panels of the plaque have inset grey-blue granite columns with torus and scotia decoration. The names of the Fallen are listed on the three panels in metal lettering; the left-hand panel lists three who served in the Royal Naval Reserve Trawler Section (RNRT), the central panel lists seven who served in the East Yorkshire Regiment, and the right-hand panel lists the names of three men lost whilst fishing, including one member of the RNRT. The plaque has a moulded base resting on a plain shelf supported by two moulded corbel brackets. The face of the shelf has gothic lettering that reads - Father in thy gracious keeping leave we now thy servants sleeping. Marks on the wall above the plaque indicate that the memorial was originally crowned with a scrolled pediment, which is missing.
