Pray for the souls of the servers and members of this choir and congregation of this church who died in the Great War and in whose memory this cross was dedicated Easter A.D. MCMXVIII. R.I.P.

This text is on the north-west face of the stone base to the cross. There was text on at least one other side of the stone but the weather has worn it away almost entirely.
