This old limestone arch is just west of the church main entrance, leading to the large cemetery that surrounds this grand old church. It has "Great War" and "1914 1918" carved in a ribbon on the top of the arch. On the inside of the arch, on both sides, are two carved plaques listing the names of forty-four from the surrounding area that died during the Great War. Later, nine names from W.W. II and one name from the Korean War were added.
