of each man in the parish who died 
The First World War Memorial of St Margaret’s Church stands on the corner of Kingston Road and St Margaret’s Road in north Oxford. .It was patterned on the many shrines encountered by British troops in Flanders during the First World War, some of which were the only thing left standing amongst the ruins of war. The cast-iron figure of Jesus was made by Lucy’s Foundry in Jericho.
Death-watch beetle has got into the base of the four pillars, which like the dome are made of oak, and the memorial is on the verge of collapse. An appeal has been launched to raise £20,000 to restore the memorial: Donation form
The limestone base has two bronze panels with the names of the 47 men of St Margaret’s parish who died in the First World War. Of these men, 26 are buried in Belgium, England, France, Iraq, and Israel, but the other 21 have no known grave.
