In front of the Newbury Library, 22894 Hagerty Road.

This memorial is found in front of the town library.  The red granite cross lists the names of the dead from the two World Wars, brave men from this community who went to fight for the greater good, but never to return.  This is a small farming town, their loss was felt across the region, as well as those who returned broken and battered from years of fighting across the sea.
