About

The war memorial at Purleigh stands in the graveyard extension opposite the Grade I Listed All Saints Church and takes the form of a 10ft granite obelisk on a three-stepped base, built by Wray & Fuller of Chelmsford. It commemorates the lives of 25 local people who died in conflicts - 15 in World War I, nine in World War II and one name from the Korean War.

More information on those who died can be found at Roll of Honour - Essex - Purleigh (roll-of-honour.com) and in a booklet produced by the Parish Council.
