Larne war memorial consists of a Portland stone cenotaph, 16 ft in height, with the names of the 147 from the town who died in WW1. The pedestal has life-sized figures of a sailor and soldier in bronze. It used to stand in front of the old Latharna Hotel but was removed (if my memory is correct) in August 1973. It is now in a garden close to St Cedma’s Church.
