Upper Manning Church First World War Honour Roll, Wingham

This war memorial is a varnished cedar honour roll, with a deep moulded frame. In the centre of the board is a carving of a scroll, upon which the soldier's names are painted in gold. On the left side of the scroll are carved thistles and Christmas bell flowers, and on the right side are a waratah and some flannel flowers. Above the scroll is a gilded rising sun with the date '1914' painted in the centre. Flanking the emblem are the Union Jack and Australian Red Ensign, painted in full colour. Below the scroll is the symbol of the Presbyterian Church, a burning bush.

The roll was designed by Mrs W. Hawkins of Wingham. A noted carver, Mrs Hawkins also designed the Wingham M.U.I.O.O.F. Loyal Lodge No. 375 First World War Honour Roll, located in the Wingham Museum.

The roll was unveiled by Wingham Mayoress Mrs. E. McC. S. Hill on 23 October 1918 at a meeting for "intercession and thanksgiving" at the Wingham Presbyterian Church. Prayers were shared and the Minister of the parish, the Reverend J. H. Terras, acknowledged Mrs Hawkins as the maker of the roll. The coverage in The Northern Champion on 26 October described the physical characteristics of the roll in detail and listed the names of those who served. 

The roll was unveiled in the original timber church building, which was completed in 1894. It was later moved to its present site at St Andrew's Presbyterian War Memorial Church and Hall, Wingham, which was built in the 1960s. The roll is located in the foyer of the church portion of the building, which is accessible during opening hours.
