Heritage listing

Details First World War memorial, 1920, by Thomas Wickford Potter, with Second World War additions. MATERIALS: Portland stone ashlar cross and pink-coloured stone-set surround DESCRIPTION: a Latin cross with the main elevation facing to the south-east. The sides of the cross are gently canted, it has hollowed semi-circular intersections and the central roundel contains a Lancaster rose carved in relief. All elevations have panels formed by narrow incised lines. The cross is raised on a square battered plinth, with rounded upper surfaces and a rebated tablet set within its south-east elevation, which has gilded incised lettering that reads: IN GRATEFUL REMEMBRANCE/ OF/ THE MEN OF THIS PARISH/ WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES/ FOR THEIR COUNTRY/ IN THE/ GREAT WAR/ 1914-1918/ AND WORLD WAR 1939-1945. The plinth rises off a base formed by two stone steps, on a square-plan stone-set surround.
