About the memorial: Small garden surrounded by a wall on 3 sides and a low chain link fence. Flag pole on right hand side. Tapered Slate Memorial in the middle of the back wall surmounted by a sandstone cross, with a carved laurel wreath and crossed swords. The Memorial is opposite the Old Post Office and the Village Hall- which face each other across a road junction. The donation of new land by Miss Watson led to the creation of a garden of remembrance, and the memorial was moved a few feet and incorporated into the wall in 1950. A new slate tablet was added combining the WW1 and WW2 names, and a flagstaff was also added. The entire memorial has been refurbished during the WW1 centenary years and now (May 2022) looks very smart.
