Gatley Clock was unveiled in 1921 to commemorate the men whom died during the Great War. Later the plaque was removed to its current location on the village green. The clock was restored in 2012 and a duplicate plaque was fitted.
The War Memorial is sited on Church Road in a small garden on the Village Green.
Two plaques list the fallen from the Two World Wars.
