The Mortimer War Memorial is a monument that commemorates the lives of servicemen from Stratfield Mortimer, Berkshire, England, who were killed in war. Unveiled on 9 October 1921, it was originally intended to commemorate 56 soldiers from the parish who died during the First World War. Subsequent plaques were added to recognise 12 who were killed in the Second World War, and to mark 50 years of freedom from global conflict.
