War Memorials Trust case: War Memorials Trust needs to avoid Contributors changing location/description details as we help to protect and conserve this war memorial through our casework. You can still add photographs, update condition and use the tabs below. If you believe any of the information you cannot edit is wrong or information is missing, please make a note of the reference number and include it in your email when you contact us.

Status: On original site
Type: Non freestanding
Location: External
Setting: Attached to a building/structure
Description: Board/Plaque/ Tablet
Lettering: Inscribed on a plaque
About the memorial: The plaque is set into a wall to the left of the church entrance. It faces the main street and can be seen easily by those passing by. The plaque, which was erected in the 1920s contains the names of 40 'parishioners' who gave their lives in WW1 but recent research shows that 10 of them are probably names of relatives or loved ones who attended the churchwhen the plaque was erected. The remainder have been traced as local family residents. The names of four brothers - Burgess- and their uncle - Regan -appear on the plaque, the uncle and one of the brothers were killed in the course of a naval battle in September 1914 so the mother learned of the deaths of her son and brother at the same time, the other brothers either died in action or as a result of their wounds. Inside the church are two stained glass windows, one dedicated to all soldiers who fell in battle in1914-1918 and the other to a 2nd Lt. Charles H.S. Bruno who died in 1918 but whose name does not appear on the plaque. In July 2015 the plaque was cleaned and regilded with a grant from the War Memorials Trust.
