It has a moulded top and four recess panels, in one of which (that facing Railway Street) is a slate slab bearing the dedication and names of the fallen, and on the obverse panel there is a reference to those who served. The whole rises from broad concrete steps, and was originally enclosed by a protective surround of pillars and chains.
