St Cyprian Church, Lancaster Road, Nottingham. The present church was completed in 1935. The building now used as a church hall was the former church which was built in 1913. The war memorial was transferred to the new building and was originally installed on the north-west wall of the nave but was moved to the south wall of the chancel when the layout of the north-west end of the nave was altered in the last few years. Dedication: 'To the Glory of God and in grateful memory of those who gave their lives for King and Country in the Great war 1914-1919. Grant them, O Lord, eternal rest and let light perpetual shine upon them'. The vicar of St Cyprian's, the Rev. Vincent Travers, enlisted as a combatant at the age of 46; the first in the diocese to enlist as a combatant. He remained notionally the parish priest but resigned in 1920 due to ill health arising from his military service. He became a rector in a parish in Kent in 1932, dying six years later.
