Memorial Details
What type of memorial is it?
How would you describe the memorial and its ornamentation?
Christian names and surnames etched on seven of the 19 safety glass panels inserted in the Gothic oak screen to form, with additional glass panels and railings above, a safer barrier at the opening of the choir gallery at the west end of the church. This echoes in a small way the WW1 commemorative stained glass windows erected in the apse at the east end of the church (see WMR 95236). As with that memorial, those commemorated are also named on the church's exterior War Memorial (WMR 42363).
