The First World War memorial tablet at St. Michael's Church, Stockland is an example of the reuse of First World War tablets for the commemoration of later conflicts. It was set on its own pillar near the entrance into the church, with its space further enhanced by the addition of a shelf and framed image of poppies below and the standard of the local branch of the Royal British Legion above.
