CHATBURN |

Location: The memorial stands in front of the church
OS ref: 103 SD 760 440
Date: November 1920
The photo shows the rear of the memorial (due to the direction of the sun at the time of my visit). The front of the cross is decorated with celtic designs. I plan to revisit the village at a different time of day.
TO THE GLORY OF GOD
IN HEARTFELT THANKFULNESS
FOR THE GREAT DELIVERANCE
AND THE BLESSING OF PEACE

WHO FOUGHT FOR US IN THE GREAT WAR

THE INHABITANTS OF THIS PARISH
