The war memorial is located in the churchyard of the St Lawrence’s Parish Church. It is in the form of a Celtic wheeled cross on a long shaft which is mounted on a two-tiered plinth on a two-stepped base with a grassed surround. The inscription reads: TO THE GLORY OF GOD AND IN GRATEFUL MEMORY OF THE BIDDULPH MEN WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES IN THE GREAT WAR AUG. 1914 – NOV. 1918 ‘THEIR NAME LIVETH FOR EVERMORE.’ 72 names are listed on the memorial (see http://www.roll-of-honour.com/Staffordshire/Biddulph.html for a list) all are from World War I.
