About the memorial: An oaken screen separating the side chapel from the nave, the lower panels bearing the names of 60 men of New Brentford who fell in the Great War. Dedicated 30th April 1921. (NB this is NOT the memorial stone moved to Brentford Library in 2009, which is WMO/169533.) From 'County of Middlesex Independent', 4th May 1921: 'It is executed in English oak, and consists of three principal bays with moulded and buttressed mullions, and these are again divided into six sub-divisions, with intermediate moulded mullions having open tracery worked heads in the upper part and solid panels in the lower part. On the middle rail, dividing the open part from the panels bearing the names of the fallen, are carved the words uttered by the Saviour of the World: "Greater love hath no man than this." The cornice is surmounted by a beautifully carved cresting, in which are worked two shields bearing the dates 1914 on one and 1918 on the other in raised and gilt figures. The Screen was designed by Mr. William Pywell, F.R.I.B.A., architect, of Hanwell, and has been carried out by Messrs. E. Bowman & Sons, the well-known church builders, of Stamford.'
