OS Grid Reference: SD 56542 25012
IWM War Memorial Register - WM Ref 42539
War Memorials Online - Not on site (3 May 2017)

The memorial consists of an oak board with three inset metal plaques which bear WW1 names. Each plaque is topped with a pediment. A small plaque bears the names of those who perished in WW2. The inscription "THESE LAID THE WORLD AWAY POURED OUT THE RED SWEET WINE OF YOUTH GAVE UP THE YEARS TO BE", is an excerpt from 'The Dead', by Rupert Brooke, reproduced below.

The memorial contains the names of 302 men who served across 2 plaques of three columns each and the names of 47 men who fell on one central plaque and two columns. There are a further eight names of those who fell in WW2. The names are arranged by initial then surname and are in a rough alphabetical order. Some names particularly on the right hand plaque towards the top of the memorial are faded and need touching up. UKNIWM has different figures for the men who served and fell - these are incorrect.

Thank you to Alison Wynne and her colleagues for access to St.Saviour's.

Blow out, you bugles, over the rich Dead!
There's none of these so lonely and poor of old,
But, dying, has made us rarer gifts than gold.
These laid the world away; poured out the red
Sweet wine of youth; gave up the years to be
Of work and joy, and that unhoped serene,
That men call age; and those who would have been,
Their sons, they gave, their immortality.

Blow, bugles, blow! They brought us, for our dearth,
Holiness, lacked so long, and Love, and Pain.
Honour has come back, as a king, to earth,
And paid his subjects with a royal wage;
And Nobleness walks in our ways again;
And we have come into our heritage.

The Dead by Rupert Brooke
