Description

The Llanbradach War Memorial features a figure sculpture on a tall pedestal, commemorating those who lost their lives in the world wars. The memorial consists of a square stepped plinth topped with a tall Portland stone pedestal that has a projecting moulded cornice beneath the top. Atop the pedestal is a marble figure of a classically-robed female holding a crucifix, with her right hand raised in a gesture of blessing. The pedestal is inscribed with a dedication to the fatalities from Llanbradach in the 1914-18 war, with their names engraved in black letters on the side and rear faces. Additionally, the plinth bears an inscription in black letters honoring the dead of the 1939-45 war.

Surrounding the memorial are cast iron railings that create an ambulatory at the back. The end and intermediate posts feature ball finials, while the outer railings end in square piers made of coursed rock-faced stone.
