WWI & WWII War Memorial, St Stephen's, Barbourne, Worcestershire, England - World War II Memorials / Monuments on Waymarking.com

From the britishlistedbuildings website:-
Located to the east of the Church of St Stephen (Grade II-listed) the war memorial comprises a kerbed and paved octagonal platform, a three-stepped, octagonal base, and a square plinth surmounted by a timber calvary cross, with an open triangular pediment above. The wooden sculpture of Christ is on the east face of the cross, and above is a plaque with the initials ‘INRI’ (this stands for Iesus Nazarenvs Rex Ivdaeorvm and translates as Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews).

On the east face of the plinth is the inscription:

TO THE GLORY OF GOD / AND IN THANKFUL MEMORY OF THE MEN OF THIS PARISH / WHOM HE INSPIRED TO SUFFER AND TO DIE / FOR THE CAUSE OF FREEDOM AND RIGHT / IN THE GREAT WAR OF 1914 – 1919 / AND WHOSE NAMES ARE INSCRIBED HEREON / THIS REPRESENTATION OF THE SUPREME SACRIFICE / IS ERECTED BY THEIR FELLOW PARISHIONERS / GREATER LOVE HATH NO MAN THAN THIS / THAT A MAN LAY DOWN HIS LIFE FOR HIS FRIENDS."

"The top riser of the east step is inscribed centrally with the date 1939 – 1945, and to either side are inscribed the three names, six in total, of the men of the parish who died in the Second World War."
