Two bronze tablets on the west wall of the nave at the Church of St Peter and St Simon-the-Apostle were unveiled by Baron Byng of Vimy on March 22, 1925, and dedicated  by Reverend F.H. Brewin. The names of 38 parishioners who lost their lives in the First World War are inscribed on the tablets which are surmounted by a weather-stained cross that was brought from a Toronto officer's grave in Flanders. Beneath the tablets are bronze flower boxes, a gift from war-bereaved mothers.
