The memorial was dedicated by the Rural Dean of
Sandwich, Rev W. Ceidrych Thomas. The colour picture above is of
the replacement, from around the 1980s, made after the original
had decayed by local craftsman Jack Holdstock, from
Shepherdswell, nearby. The cross was also re-aligned to face the
path.
