It is constructed from Portland stone and stands 2.7 meters tall.

The main inscription, in incised lettering on the east face of the plinth, reads: "TO THE GLORY OF GOD / AND IN MEMORY OF / THE MEN OF FALKENHAM / WHO DIED FOR / KING AND COUNTRY / 1914 – 1918." The names of the 12 fallen soldiers are inscribed on the other three sides of the plinth.
