Description

The Tollard Royal and Rushmore War Memorial is a war memorial approximately 3 meters high, located within a grassed enclosure by the roadside in the center of the village. It is surrounded by a chain supported by low stone bollards. The memorial is made of limestone and features a two-stepped square base and a small plinth, topped with an octagonal shaft and a Latin cross fleury.

The front face of the plinth bears the inscription: "THIS MONUMENT IS ERECTED IN REMEMBRANCE AND GRATITUDE TO THOSE MEN OF TOLLARD ROYAL AND RUSHMORE WHO GAVE THEIR ALL FOR KING, FOR HONOUR AND FOR COUNTRY AND MAY THEIR DEEDS INSPIRE US TO HIGHER THINGS THEIR NAMES LIVE FOR EVERMORE." The names of those who fell are inscribed on two sides of the plinth, while the fourth face remains blank.
