At the junction of the A50 and A556. The base records those from the Mere Estate who lost their lives in the two World Wars. In 2006 Seller’s Portland Stone column, supposedly damaged by the vibration of passing traffic and deemed beyond repair, was replaced with a granite cross. The bronze winged victory had been stolen some twenty years previously.
