The first War Memorial was located in front of the old School, now the Scout Hall in Top End, to commemorate those who died in the First World War. In 1919 the villagers, by public subscription, erected the Memorial in a stone surround.
After the Second World War, Mrs Charles Polhill donated an area of land in Top End to the Parish Council as a new site for the marble tablet and having the benefit of a garden; the names of those who died during the Second World War were added.
