The Grade II Listed Daresbury war memorial in Cheshire is located within the churchyard of the Grade II* Listed All Saints Church. It is a wheel cross on a stepped hexagonal base.
In 2020, £2,300 was awarded through War Memorials Trust Grants Scheme to address the condition of the war memorial. The project involved hand cleaning using water and bristle brushes, the repair of some cracks to the memorial and the replacement of some of the lead lettering.
Daresbury war memorial was unveiled on October 1920. It commemorates 16 men who fell in World War I with a further 4 names being added following World War II.
