War Memorial

The War Memorial Roll of Honour

The principal War Memorial consists of a marble tablet mounted on the south aisle wall.

A Roll of Honour, listing all those who volunteered for war service is on display by the tower.

A 3-light memorial window is dedicated to the three Huntriss Brothers who were all killed in the First World War.

The clock was added to the tower in 1921 as an additional memorial.

The inscription on the Memorial reads:

AND IN GRATEFUL MEMORY OF THE MEN OF
THIS PARISH WHO LOST THEIR LIVES IN THE
GREAT WAR 1914 - 1918.

THIS TABLET AND THE CLOCK IN THE CHURCH
