About the memorial: Undeniably a work of art, the memorial to those that fell takes the form of a stained glass window in the north transept. This has been completed by a London firm, but the whole of the designs were executed under the direction of Mrs. J. Beanland, who has been responsible for what may possible be one of the finest memorial windows in the district. All preliminary work has been ably performed by a Committee under the presidency of the Vicar (Ren. J. Beanland, M.A.) The tracey shows the arms of the Allies-England, France, Belgium, United States, Serbia, and Italy. The centre light shows ”Christ and the Good Centurion,” with the words “I have not found so great faith not in all Israel.” The figure on the left represents “Peace”, while beneath is “The Comrade in White,” showing Christ with a wounded soldier and an ambulance man, with the inscription, “I am with you always.” On the right panel is “Victory” and beneath, “The Supreme Sacrifice,” with the inscription “Greater love hath no man.” The names appear on a tablet below the window'

Left light: PEACE/ Right Light: VICTORY/ Across all 4 lights: I am with you alway I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel. Greater love hath no man./ "They whom this window commemorates were numbered among those who, at the call of King and Country, left all that was dear to them/ endured hardness, faced danger, and finally passed out of the sight of men by the path of duty and self sacrifice giving up their/ own lives that others might live in freedom. Let those who come after see to it that their names be not forgotten" 1914-1918/ Tablet: Tablet: DUTY - DEATH - VICTORY - GLORY/ OFFICERS,/ N.C.O'S & MEN:-/ (names)/ RED + NURSES:-/ (name
