Heritage listing
Details First World War memorial, 1919. DESCRIPTION: Honing war memorial is located in the churchyard, to the east of the Grade II*-listed Church of St Peter and St Paul. It is of Clipsham sandstone and takes the form of a small wheel-head cross fleurée above a moulded collar with floral carvings. This crowns a slender, fluted shaft, which terminates in a square base with inverted chamfered stops to the corners. The shaft rises from a four-sided plinth with a moulded foot, surmounting a three-stepped octagonal base. The whole stands on an octagonal concrete platform. The plinth bears the inscriptions and names, carved in relief. The east face reads TO THE PRAISE OF GOD/ AND IN GRATEFUL MEMORY/ OF THE MEN FROM HONING WHO/ GAVE THEIR LIVES IN THE WAR/ 1914 – 1919. The 13 names are listed on the remaining faces of the plinth grouped by regiment or military service.
