Following the Second World War, additional inscriptions were added to commemorate the fallen in that conflict.
The memorial is recorded by the Imperial War Museum. It is not the only War Memorial in the village. In the Conservative Club, there is also a memorial to those who died in the Boer War and there are 2 Rolls of Honour in the Community Centre.
The society has researched into the history of each of the names on the memorial.
