Besides All Saints Church, Hundon is a stone cross paty above a tapered plinth, standing on two steps and a concrete base. The names of the fallen and the dedication are incised on the faces of the tapered plinth. The history of the monument is not known at present. Currently (July 2018) plans are being made for the memorial to be renovated and some names added for WW1. The dedication reads:-

IN GRATEFUL MEMORY OF THE
MEN FROM THIS PARISH WHO
GAVE THEIR LIVE IN THE
GREAT WAR 1914-1919

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old,
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn
At the going down of the sun, and in the morning,
We will remember them.
