Methodist Church Sunday School Roll of HonourPrint Page Print this page

The honour roll commemorates former and current students of the Methodist Church Sunday school who served in World War One.  

The honour roll draped with the Union Jack, was dedicated at the Sunday service on 31st March 1918 conducted by Reverend T Collins.  Reverend Collins read the fifty names on the roll and his address was taken from 2 Samuel 22: 23-28.

It is mounted on the east wall and was built by George Freeman, a member of the congregation. The carvings were probably done by his wife and complement the carving on the pulpit.  Wooden construction; carved decoration which complements the carved decorations on the communion rail and pulpit. The honour roll has gold lettering.
