Crack in base to be repaired
Ramsey's 100-year-old war memorial has been cordoned off as a safety precaution after the structure was found to be damaged by erosion.
A recent inspection discovered a large crack in the stonework spanning the whole base of the cross.
Ramsey Town Commissioners said repairs to the structure were expected to be completed by the end of the month, at a cost of about £2,400.
A spokesman said regular checks and maintenance were "quite normal".
The memorial, next to the former courthouse, was built in 1919 and bears the names of 112 servicemen from the town who lost their lives during World War One.
