The wall plaque commemorates parishioners who lost their lives as a result of the war and were buried in the churchyard.

 

Unfortunately seven of the eight graves were dislodged in a rock fall from the South West corner of the churchyard, and fell into Longue Hougue Quarry. A Celtic cross and an engraved stone in the churchyard commemorate all those whose graves were lost.
