Roll of Honour
At beginning
I heard the Voice of the Lord saying “Whom shall I send, and
Who will go for us?” Then said I, “Here am I, send Me”.
(Names)
In middle
Faithful unto Death
I heard a voice from Heaven, saying unto me, “Write, from henceforth blessed are the dead which
die in the Lord, Even so, saith the Spirit, for they rest from their labours.”
1914-18 1939-45
(Names)
At end
“The Souls of the Righteous are in the Hands of God”.
Roll of Honour set behind glass in a very wide frame which has a shallow rounded centre top and extended corners.
In the frame at the top is carved a crown in half relief, and below this is a cartouche carved out bearing the name of the church with the letters carved to stand proud.
The main panel itself has a border of red, white and blue with various regimental badges superimposed at intervals.
At top right are the Greek letters “Alpha” and “Omega” intertwined, and at top left is the letter “P” superimposed on the saltire.
Between these is the quotation from Isaiah, in black Gothic script.
The names of those who served are listed in 8 columns, with the first initial of each new letter illuminated.
Beneath these are the words “Faithful unto Death” in archaic red capitals, followed by a quotation from Revelation in a blend of black, red and blue Gothic script.
The names of those who died are listed in eight columns; those from 1914-18 are in the left hand four columns, those from 1939-1945 are in the four right hand columns.
At the bottom is another quotation in Gothic script in various colours.
a. 97 names of those who died.
b. 40 names of those who died.
916 names of those who served, but which war they served in is not clear.
