War Memorial Bus Shelter

The building is orientated north-south on the west of the Barnard's Green roundabout. It is rectangular in plan with a semicircular south end and a rectangular clock tower at the north end.

The road-facing elevation has three large open bays giving access to the shelter, with the clock tower set back on the right-hand side. A modern plaque to the right of the bays states: 'BECAUSE THE WAR TO END ALL WARS DIDN'T'. The clock tower has a simple square clock face in a black frame with a circular ring of line markers in lieu of numbers. The upper stage of the tower has square cut-away corners with projecting horizontal fins on the right hand side, below which the shaft of the tower returns and there is a vertical row projecting squares. The southern, semi-circular elevation is recessed from the front of the shelter and has a strip of five windows containing recessed panels with applied poppy details. The north elevation of the clock tower has two recessed panels with similar decoration. Both the main range and the clock tower have overhanging flat roofs edged in dark green paint, the rest of the exterior is painted cream.

The interior is painted black and has a tiled floor. There are three rows of red and green modern seats. There is a brass plaque with poppy decorations which is inscribed 'BARNARDS GREEN WAR MEMORIAL / 1939-1945 / DEDICATED TO THE MEMORY OF THE MEN / WHO MADE THE SUPREME SACRIFICE / IN THE CAUSE OF FREEDOM / AT THE GOING DOWN OF THE SUN AND IN THE MORNING / WE WILL REMEMBER THEM'.
