Inglewood War Memorial
About the Project
The Inglewood War Memorial is located near City Hall’s Manchester entrance. The memorial is comprised of an obelisk and flag court. The center panel on the stone obelisk holds the words:
“To keep forever living the freedom for which they died. We dedicate this memorial to our dead in World War II, Korea and Vietnam.”
Service veteran’s names are on the plinth. A stone eagle, a symbol for bravery, watches over a relief of a sword and wreath, referencing those lost in combat. Honoring residents who served their country, Inglewood’s memorial rededication ceremony is observed each Memorial Day.
