Royal Welch Fusiliers War Memorial

Reviewed By Big_Jeff_Leo - St Helens, United Kingdom

The Royal Welch Fusiliers memorial was erected in 1924, and moved to its present site after the Second World War. By Sir W. Goscombe John, sculptor, the monument has a central pedestal surmounted by figures in the uniforms of the Royal Welch Fusiliers. An Inscription, commemorating the dead of the First World War is flanked by low quadrant walls which carry Second World War inscriptions, and have laurel-band cornice and raking copings. The walls terminate in stepped piers with segmental caps, and low relief emblems. The quadrant walls enclose a cobbled surface raised up steps. More recent adaptations include a couple of benches. What is unusual with this monument is that one of the soldiers is wearing a WW1 Uniform but the other is wearing an 18th Century Uniform.
