Description

The Haverton Hill and Port Clarence War Memorial is located at the junction of Port Clarence Road and West Street. It is designed as a tall obelisk made of red granite, which rises from the corniced top of a large pedestal. The pedestal is set on a three-stepped base. The base of the obelisk features a fillet, and on the front face, there is a wreath carved in relief.

The main dedicatory inscription on the front face of the pedestal reads: "HAVERTON HILL AND PORT CLARENCE/ WAR MEMORIAL./ IN PROUD AND LOVING MEMORY/ OF THE MEN OF THIS DISTRICT/ WHO FELL/ IN THE GREAT WAR 1914-1919./ (NAMES)." On the east face of the pedestal, there is a dedication for the Second World War that states: "IN PROUD AND LOVING MEMORY/ OF THE MEN AND WOMEN/ OF THIS DISTRICT WHO FELL IN/ WORLD WAR II./ (NAMES)." These inscriptions are presented on bronze plaques affixed to the granite. Additionally, at the front of the pedestal's base, a small shield commemorates six names from the First World War that were added later.
