The names of nine local lads lost in WWII are listed on the stone. The full inscription translates as "Boys of the district who were lost in the War of 1939-45" (The list of 9 names then follows) "In the morning of their lives, their blood the lads gave. To costly purchase your freedom and mine." Image
