Town War Memorial

The Newbury War Memorial is on your right as you reach Bartholomew Street.

The War Memorial was unveiled in October 1922 to commemorate 338 local men and one woman who died in the First World War. After the Second World War, the record was updated with the names of 171 local men who died in this conflict. Like many other war memorials, this was recently nationally listed. St Nicolas Church was hit by an incendiary bomb in November 1940 but only suffered minimal damage.

Cross the road, continue straight on and turn right into the Market Place.
