War Memorial St. Stephen's Church

Inside St. Stephen’s Church (a structure with a tower and side walls dating back to the 14th century) are memorials to the fallen from World War I and World War II. Local sculptor and memorialist - Hubert Alexander Miller - produced memorials, including these, for those lost in both of the World Wars.

Inscription on base of brass cross on altar table:
To the glory of God
And in proud and loving memory of
Alick Charles Cockrill, Norfolk Regt
Who was killed in action in France on April 23rd 1917
Aged 26 years.

Inscription on wooden edge of the altar table:
To the glory of God
And in memory of the men of this parish who fell in the Great War 1914-1918
And in the Second World War 1939-1945.

A wall plaque with names of those fallen in World War One and below it a separate plaque with those fallen in World War Two are on the north wall of the church.
