The War Memorial is at the junction of Farm Town Lane and the old Ashby Road, a little way along from Viscount Beaumont's School. Each November on Remembrance Sunday a short service is held at the Memorial, the names of the soldiers from Coleorton who died in WWI and WWII are read out and wreaths laid on behalf of the parishioners, Viscount Beaumont's School and the congregation of St Mary's Church.
