Covenham St Bartholomew war memorial is located at the western edge of the churchyard of the Church of St Bartholomew. It is a granite Celtic cross with a rich interlace design, and commemorates those of the local community who fought in the First World War. {1} This memorial takes the form of an elegant, granite Celtic cross with a raised knotwork design on the cross head and shaft, and stands on a tapered rough-hewn plinth. The memorial was paid for by public subscription, and crafted and erected by Mawer Bros of Louth. It was unveiled on 12 September 1920. It commemorates five local individuals who fell in the First World War, and 18 who served in the conflict, including one woman, Sister Lamming. A granite slab was later added at the foot of the west elevation to include four additional names, two who served in the First World War, and two who served in the Second World War. The memorial stands on a square-plan concrete base, and is bounded by a stone kerb with a metal post and rail dwarf fence.
