Comments:
Swithland War Memorial is in poor condition. The cross and the plinth are in a satisfactory condition but the steps below the memorial and the paving is in very poor condition. These are in local Swithland Slate and the mortar is in very poor condition with some of the steps unsafe. They need to be lifted, re-bedded and re-mortared. The cost is estimated at £12000. The Memorial is part of Swithland Memorial Hall which is a registered charity and receives no funding from the civil or ecclesiastical parishes. The Memorial Management Committee plan to raise funds in 2020 to carry out the necessary repairs,
