The memorial features an obelisk that rises from a pedestal with a moulded collar and foot, all set on a single stepped base. The north face of the pedestal is inscribed with "ERECTED IN HONOUR OF (NAMES) WHO FELL IN THE GREAT WAR 1914 – 1918." The east face includes the words "PASS NOT THIS STONE IN SORROW BUT IN PRIDE AND MAY YOU LIVE AS NOBLY AS THEY DIED."
