Unusually, Beckington has created a new memorial to the men of the village who died in WWII, unveiled on 12 November, 1995. It now stands close to the original memorial, dedicated principally to two men who were killed in WWI. On the new memorial are fourteen names, followed by one from the Falklands War of 1982.
