The Worthing War Memorial, located outside the Town Hall in Chapel Road, honors the sacrifices of local servicemen with a comprehensive Roll of Honour that includes 660 names from World War I and an additional 404 from World War II, along with three names from other conflicts. Unveiled on April 11, 1921, by Field Marshal Sir William Robertson, the memorial features a bronze soldier holding a rifle and helmet, symbolizing the valor of those who served.
This memorial, erected through public subscription and supported by the Worthing Gazette, serves as a poignant reminder of duty and sacrifice, with inscriptions commemorating the fallen from both World Wars. The names are organized alphabetically across several pages, ensuring that the contributions of these individuals are preserved and remembered.
