The St Peter's Parish WW1 Memorial sited at the entrance to St Peters -in-Thanet church. A cross of sacrifice tops a tall stone column mounted on a raised planted plinth. The only inscription on the cross is AD 1914- 1918. To the side of the cross memorial stands a memorial wall, which displays the names of 118 men of the Parish who fell. The names are displayed on a tiled wall under a lych-gate type canopy in order in which year of the war they made the ultimate sacrifice.

The Memorial reads;

IN THE YEARS OF OUR LORD 1914 - 1918 / ALL THOSE OF THIS PARISH WHO IN THE GREAT WAR DIED FOR US AND / FOR OUR PEACE ARE NAMED ON THIS MEMORIAL THAT THEY MAY BE / REMEMBERED HERE TOGETHER HOWEVER FAR APART THEY LIE.
