County War Memorial, Nottingham

The County War Memorial, Nottingham is a Grade II listed structure in Nottingham.

History
The war memorial was designed by Cecil Greenwood Hare and unveiled on 20 April 1922. It was funded by public subscription. It stands as the entrance to St Mary's Church, Nottingham at the junction of High Pavement and St Mary's Gate.

It comprises a tall cross 29 feet high with a bronze sword on traceried octagonal base and stepped octagonal pedestal with inscribed tablet.

On either side is a tapering flight of steps, at the head of which is a pair of gates. Flanking the steps are walls with moulded coping and square pedestals with square iron lanterns. The inset tablets hold the names of parishes, towns and villages in the city and county.

The gate pillars hold raised tablets with the names of men and women from St Mary’s parish who died in the First World.

The memorial was restored in 2008 when new inscribed panels were installed.
