About the memorial: Ornate wrought iron gates with inscription and dates at top. These gates were erected in 1953 to commemorate the local men and women who died in the First and Second World Wars. Fundraising for a new memorial began as the Second World War came to a close. After years of debate, a decision was taken to erect new park gates and a wooden bandstand in the park. The bandstand eventually decayed and was demolished in the 1980s. The memorial gates were refurbished and rededicated in 2000.
