East Barnet War Memorial, War memorial and Grade II listed building in New Barnet, England.

The East Barnet War Memorial features a Celtic cross made of Portland stone with a bronze figure representing victory holding a palm leaf on a globe.

Built in 1921, the memorial lists 277 men and one woman who died in World War I, with 136 additional names from World War II added later.

The memorial, designed by Newbury Abbot Trent ARA, was unveiled by Viscount Hampden, commander of the 1st Battalion Hertfordshire Regiment during World War I.

Located at the junction of Station Road and Lyonsdown Road, the memorial stands on a triangular plot that provides space for commemorative gatherings.

Catherine Loveday led the initiative to incorporate the names of World War II casualties, expanding the memorial's historical documentation of local military service.
