Newcastle War Memorial Dedication
The Newcastle First World War Memorial in Old Eldon Square was unveiled by Earl Haig on 26th September 1923. It is in the form of a bronze statue of St George killing the Dragon. The statue is mounted on a tall white stone pedestal with a simple cornice and stepped base.
The dedication is on the base of the pedestal, at the rear. It reads:
A TRIBUTE OF AFFECTION
TO THE MEN OF
NEWCASTLE DISTRICT
WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES
IN THE CAUSE OF FREEDOM
THEIR NAME LIVETH FOR EVERMORE
