Description

Village war memorial located on the east side of the A493 road outside the church of St Celynnin in what appears to be a small enclosed extension of the graveyard to which it lies adjacent. Believed to have been erected c.1920, the monument is a rusticated granite, Celtic-type ring cross with tapered shaft decorated on its front north side with impannelled interlace. It is set on a slightly tapered pedestal mounted on a square concrete base. A raised polished pannel on the front of the pedestal records the names in lead of the fallen of the First World War. On its west face an incised panel similarly records the fallen of the Second World War. The memorial was Grade II listed by Cadw in June 2005.
