Wales Denbighshire  Cynwyd War Memorial

The Cynwyd War Memorial commemorates those men and women of the area who died during World War I. The memorial stands outside St. John the Evangelist church (which replaced All Saints' Church in Llangar as parish church in 1856), near the front gate. It takes the form of a granite cross, standing on an octagonal base.
