The cross shaft stands on a pedestal, square on plan, on a three-stepped base. The principal dedicatory inscription to the front face of the pedestal reads THIS MONUMENT IS ERECTED/ IN MEMORY OF/ THE MEN OF THIS PARISH/ WHO FELL IN THE GREAT WAR/ 1914-1918. Names are recorded on the other faces of the pedestal and on the foot of the cross shaft. An epitaph on the front face of the base’s upper step reads "THEIR NAME LIVETH FOR EVERMORE”.
