Description
The Llanfynydd War Memorial is an obelisk made of polished red granite, standing on a rock-faced stepped plinth. The base features raised fields, with the front displaying a memorial inscription in gold letters. This memorial is situated within a semi-circular enclosure, which is defined by a rubble-stone dwarf wall. The enclosure has rock-faced and freestone square terminal piers, and iron chains across the front are mounted on cast iron pedestals made by William Isaac & Son of Carmarthen.
