{left of ddor}This building is dedicated as a memorial to the countless thousands of god's humble creatures who suffered and perished in the Great War, 1914-18. Knowing nothing of the cause, looking forward to no final victory, filled only with love, faith and loyalty, they endured much and died for us. May we all remember them with gratitude, and in the future commemorate their suffering and death by showing kindness and consideration to living animals.
{right of door}1914-1918, this tablet records the deaths by enemy action, disease or accident, of 484,143 horses, mules, camels and bullocks, and of many hundreds of dogs, carrier pigeons and other creatures on the various fronts during the Great War. It also records the fact that in France alone, 725,216 sick and wounded animals were treated in the veterinary hospitals provided by the R.S.P.C.A.

In loving memory of our darling sister Marie Lloyd born Feb 12th 1870 died Oct 7th 1922 daughter of John and Matilda Wood
Tired she was, and she wouldn't show it.
Suffering she was, and hoped we didn't know it.
But he who loved her knew, and, understanding all, Prescribed long rest, and gave the final call.
