Edith Weston has ten names on its War Memorial inside the church. There's also a Memorial Chapel to the right as you walk in, dedicated to Lieutenant Colonel Francis Hardy of the Coldstream Guards and "to all those who gave their lives or their health" in the Great War. Francis Hardy himself did not die in the war. The much faded Colour of 2nd Battalion Coldstream Guards 1914-1917 hangs on the wall. In the Second World War a Lancaster bomber crashed less than a hundred yards from the church.
