War Memorial North Grimston

This memorial was erected by the parents of the five men of North Grimson who died in World War I.

Erected by the parents in honoured memory of their beloved sons who fell in the great war 1914 – 1919
(names)
They sleep with England's heroes in the watchful care of God.


They died the noblest death a man may die,
Fighting for God, and right, and Liberty.


Ever ours in memory, thought and love

Sublime, transcendant love, to give.
Their bright young lives, that we mighty live.
And yet, we fain had put aside the cross.
So human is our strength and great, our loss.
