Heritage listing

Details Glandford and Bayfield War Memorial is situated beside the path that leads from the road to the churchyard of the Church of St Martin (Grade II*), standing just outside the churchyard gate. The tall granite memorial comprises a Latin cross with crucifixion, standing on a four-stepped base, square on plan. The figure of Christ, carved in the round, makes the sign of blessing. The cross surfaces are roughly stippled. The second step of the base bears the inscriptions, in incised lettering, reading IN MEMORY OF ALL THOSE WHO GAVE/ UP THEIR LIVES FOR THEIR KING AND/ COUNTRY IN THE GREAT WAR 1914-18/ HOLY JESU HAVE MERCY ON THEIR SOULS. Most of the letters are filled with a black material, but some words have red initials.
