Heritage listing
Details The Portland stone memorial stands in the churchyard, to the west of All Saints’ Church. It comprises the figure of Christ crucified on a large wheel-head cross. The cross rises from a pedestal with a shallow two-stepped base, that stands on two steps and a concrete base. An inscription on the front face of the cross shaft, below the crucifixion, reads 1939 - 1945/ (15 NAMES). Below this on the pedestal a wreath carved in relief encloses the dates 1939 – 1945 and a small stone plaque on the pedestal base reads GREATER LOVE/ HATH NO MAN THAN THIS. A similar wreath to the rear of the pedestal encloses 1914 – 1918 and the names of 26 local servicemen who died in the First World War are listed on the side faces.
