The wooden honour roll commemorates those who served in World War One. The honour roll was relocated to the hall after the South Spreyton Baptist Church closed in 1992. 

There was a large attendance at the Baptist Hall, South Spreyton on Monday night, when Mr. E.Blyth, M.H.A., unveiled an honor roll in honor of, and as a tribute to, the brave men who have enlisted from the district for active service at the front. The roll contained 13 names, of which six have paid the supreme sacrifice.
