The wooden honour roll commemorates those from the church who served in World War One. 

On Sunday morning last, the Rev. M. G. Hinsby unveiled an Honor Roll in St. Anne's Church of England. The event was one of unusual interest to Ryde, and the attendance at the church was large, including a number of scouts and veteran soldiers. In harmony with the existing furnishings of the church, the Roll was made of cedar, and consisted of three panels set in a canopied frame of very fine carving. The centre panel contains the names of the men who made the supreme sacrifice, while the side panels bear the names of those who enlisted and returned. The whole is a very fine memorial.
