War Memorial to the Staff of the Cambrian Railways

The War Memorial to the Staff of the Cambrian Railways is located just inside Cae Glas Park, on the left side after entering through the Grade II-listed memorial gates. The memorial consists of a stone pillar approximately 2 meters tall. At the front, there is a bronze statue of a draped female figure looking upwards with outstretched arms. Behind the statue is a marble panel featuring a rising sun motif carved in low relief, bordered by stone.

The statue is positioned on a bronze half pedestal, which has a shallow ornamented bronze shelf beneath it. Mounted on the lower section of the marble panel is a brass plaque inscribed with the words: "THIS TABLET IS ERECTED TO PERPETUATE/ THE MEMORY OF/ THE MEN/ OF THE CAMBRIAN RAILWAYS/ WHOSE NAMES ARE HERE RECORDED AND/ WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES FOR THEIR KING/ AND COUNTRY IN THE GREAT WAR/ 1914-1918/ (53 NAMES)."

In front of the memorial's base, there is a slate plaque affixed to a small stone. This plaque states: "THIS MEMORIAL REMOVED/ FROM THE CLOSED/ OSWESTRY RAILWAY STATION/ WAS ERECTED ON THIS SITE/ BY OSWESTRY TOWN COUNCIL/ AND UNVEILED BY/ CLLR W.G. JONES/ ON OCTOBER 23RD 1975." This additional plaque is not considered of special interest.
