The War Memorial for the First World War is in the Memorial Chapel. It carries 188 names. Also in the Chapel is a Book of Remembrance for those who died in the Second World War. The names in it have been transcribed by Robert Butler and a copy is in Stapleford Library.
1 name on the memorial is that of a soldier who served in the Yorkshire Regiment.
