Description
A brick wall with sandstone inscription panel, sandstone coping and garden edging. The memorial was given by Miss Sibella Macarthur Onslow, O.B.E. in honour of those who fell in the First World War. The bricks are hand-made and came from the old wine cellar at Camden Park, the Macarthur's home. A subsequent plaque was added following the Second World War.
