About
Sir Arthur Nicholson and his wife Lady Marianne Nicholson presented the memorial to the town in memory of their son Lieutenant Basil Lee Nicholson (who was killed in action at Ypres in 1915, at the age of 24) and all the other local men who died fighting in the First World War. The memorial was officially opened and dedicated on Thursday the 20th August 1925. At 90 feet high and with four clock faces, it is one of the largest memorials in the country and contains the two memorial tablets listing the fallen of WW1.
