information

The
war memorial stands in the centre of Chesham in a garden at a road junction.
It takes the form of a life size figure of an infantryman with his rifle
inverted on top of a plinth with a stepped base. Brass plaques are attached
to the sides of the plinth with the inscription and names. The World
War 2 section of the memorial takes the form of two obelisks either
side of, but separate from, the World War 1 memorial. There are 185
names for World War 1 and 77 for World War 2.
