Geocache Description:


This War Memorial is driven past by thousands of cars every day and is probably unseen by all.

It is a simple but elegant granite monument which proudly shows the names of those who died and of those who served in WWI.

It is unusual that many of the names also appear on other war memorials and rolls of honour in Par, St Blazey and Tywardreath, which shows the close-knit nature of these communities in the early part of the 20th Century when families were likely to remain close by all their lives.
