Eight soldiers are remembered on the war memorial in the churchyard. There is also the particularly interesting headstone of Lieutenant Colonel Leonard Ashworth who died in March 1918. Another headstone remembers Bert Hibbitt who is buried in France but is commemorated on his parents' grave, to the right hand side of the church opposite the house where they used to live. On the memorial, Samuel Pawlett has one of the more unusual stories of Rutland men who served and died.
