Heritage listing

Details The tall Portland stone memorial stands on War Memorial Green, a quadrangle formed by Roadside Cottages, a group of Grade II-listed buildings (6 and 7 Lechlade Road, 8-11 Lechlade Road, and 12-14 Lechlade Road) that are part of the Buscot and Coleshill Estates (National Trust). It takes the form of an obelisk, square on plan, standing on a square plinth and two-stepped base. The dedication and commemorated names were inscribed on the plinth. Now a metal plaque on the front face of the plinth records the principal dedicatory inscription, reading FOR GOD FOR RIGHT FOR LIBERTY/ IN MEMORY OF EATON HASTINGS MEN/ WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES IN THE GREAT WAR/ 1914 – 1918/ ROLL OF HONOUR/ (8 NAMES).
