Heritage listing
Details The stone memorial stands at the junction of Wicker Lane and Hale Road. It takes the form of a wheel-head cross raised on a tapered octagonal shaft. The shaft stands on a pedestal, square on plan and chamfered, that stands on an octagonal base. Each face of the pedestal is ornamented to the top with a strapwork roundel supported by flambeaux, carved in low relief. Each roundel bears a wreath encircling a lion passant. The commemorated names are incised below on each face. The chamfered pedestal corners are carved in a broad interlace pattern ending in stops. The dedicatory inscription is incised into the upper face of the base, encircling the memorial cross, reading TO THE MEMORY AND HONOUR OF THE MEN OF HALE BARNS AND RINGWAY WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES IN THE TWO WORLD WARS with the dates 1914 – 1919 and 1939 – 1945 to the sides. The lower portion of the base is rough-hewn. This List entry has been amended to add sources for War Memorials Online and the War Memorials Register.
