Heritage listing
Details MATERIALS: made of Clipsham stone and consists of a cross standing on a seven-tier base and plinth. The wheel cross has carved trefoil decoration between its arms and surmounts a tapering octagonal shaft. Half way up the shaft are four shields, one to each side. Most of the inscriptions are carved into the top tier of the base, but there are others on panels on each face of the base, and on the plinth. As well as the names of the casualties of war, an inscription reads 'THEIR NAME LIVETH FOR EVER MORE'. This List entry has been amended to add sources for War Memorials Online and the War Memorials Register. These sources were not used in the compilation of this List entry but are added here as a guide for further reading, 23 January 2017.
