This small war memorial with just seven names on it is situated just north of the chapel. Three of the seven died after the War ended. Unfortunately the names closest to the ground are harder to read. The names and details, including date of death, on the memorial are as follows: Private C.T. Gould - Hampshire Regiment 21.1.1919 Private G.W. Harvey - Royal Defence Corps 20.12.1917 Air Man 1st CL. A. Jarman - Royal Air Force 12.6.1920 Private A.W.
