War Memorials Trust case: War Memorials Trust needs to avoid Contributors changing location/description details as we help to protect and conserve this war memorial through our casework. You can still add photographs, update condition and use the tabs below.

Status: On original site
Type: Non freestanding
Location: External
Setting: Attached to a building/structure
Description: Calvary
Materials:
  • Stone Stone (any)
Lettering: Inscribed on a plaque
Conflicts:
  • First World War (1914-1918)
  • Second World War (1939-1945)
About the memorial: The memorial is attached to the exterior wall of the church beside the South Door (main entrance). Therer is a calvary on the wall flanked by plaques to Captain Bucklety and to the men of the parish, with their names below.; A separate, and non-matching plaque has been added for WW2. There is what appears to be a grave in front, heavily overgrown. It seems clear that it was placed there by the local Buckley family. The medieval church was restored by this family in 1854 with a chapel dedicated to themselves. The photographs show the memorial to be in lamentable condition and apparently forgotten or ignored, though there are well-presented Rolls of Honour on the wall inside.
