OVER WALLOP
Stone cross in village centre.
(Names round edge on faces listed from right going anticlockwise.)
Front face of first plinth down.
Their name
liveth for
evermore
Back face of first plinth down.
A.D. 1914 - 1919.
On faces of second plinth down (Octagonal)
The four pillars were redone between 2014 & 2021, unknown where the information came from. Below these redone pillars is the only legible information before they were redone.
On the four pillars around the cross it looks like there are names of those who served but
are mainly illegible due to the pillars having been knocked into and eroded over the years.
The below is what is still just legible, number of people on each unknown - blanks below just illustration.
