Full Description
{1} The war memorial has a three-stepped, octagonal base surmounted by a square stone plinth on which are incised a dedication and the names of the five people who died in the First World War and one person who died in the Second World War. From the square base rises a Latin cross with a tapering shaft. The war memorial was unveiled in 1920 and is a poignant reminder of those people from the village who gave their lives in the two world wars.
