Bridestowe Roll of Honour 1914-1918.
The names of all men from the parish who served their country in World War 1 are inscribed on a large stone which was set into the wall of the Chapel at the junction of Station Road and Fore Street. The path levels at the foot of the stone have changed since the original installation so the bottom two names are not easy to read.
The names of the seven men who died are followed by the letters RIP
