War Memorials in Broxbourne

There are four war memorials in the Borough. These are located in:

  • Hoddesdon town centre;
  • Churchfields, Broxbourne;
  • Turners Hill, Cheshunt; and
  • Goff's Lane, Goff's Oak. 

 

All four war memorials were erected by public subscription shortly after the First World War. Following the deaths of the subscribers, Broxbourne Council has adopted the memorials and now maintains them accordingly. Names of those lost in the Second World War were added to the Goff's Oak and Hoddesdon memorials sometime ago; to the Broxbourne memorial in 2007, and were added to the Cheshunt memorial in 2010.

 

Remembrance Sunday wreath laying ceremonies are performed at each memorial, every year.
