This memorial to the six Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club players who died in The Great War was unveiled, in the presence of descendants of Alexander Crawford, Ralph Hemingway, Harold Hodges, Charles Pepper, William Riley and Harvey Staunton, on 4 September 2018. The words carved on the trench-board stump on the left are from a call to arms by Arthur Conan Doyle: "If the cricketer has a straight eye let him look along the barrel of a rifle". The memorial is on the stairs at the main entrance to the Pavilion.
