Notes
1. It would seem that the statue in the niche is not part of the memorial: “In 1923 a niche was erected at each side of the apsidal opening. The left niche is a memorial to Capt. H. White, who was killed in action, and was presented by Mrs. White and family. It cost £300 and contains a marble statue of the Sacred Heart, presented at a cost of £125 by Mrs. Heenan and family."
2. Captain White is also remembered on F32.06
