- Extended Description
- Unveiled by HRH The Princess Royal
and dedicated by the Rt. Revd. The Bishop of Ramsbury,
Dr. Edward Condry on 21 June 2016
"This stone poppy memorial is crafted from hard marble to represent the harshness of war; the white stone signifies peace, illuminated by red in remembrance; its delicate petals show the vulnerability of human life, shaped into four hearts to express gratitude, honour, love and respect; the petals meet to form a cross as a symbol of sacrifice and forgiveness"
Donated by Mary Humphrey, Creator.
