War Memorial

The East Window is a memorial to those parishioners who served in the First World War. It was dedicated by the rector on 11 July 1920.

The principal war memorial is in the form of a cross and is located in the cemetery across the road from the church. It was designed by Lieutenant-Colonel A. W. Brewill of the Nottingham architectural firm, Brewill & Baily, and was unveiled on 27 June 1920. The memorial cost £240 and the amount was raised by public subscription.
