Erected in 1923 by First World War veterans, this memorial was originally dedicated to the local veterans of the First World War. Plaques were later added to commemorate the Second World War and the Korean War.
The Bowsman monument is shaped very much like a familiar building form, but rendered somewhat exotic by its placement on the ground – it is really a small dome with a classical lantern and cross rising to the sky. The memorial gains even greater distinction through the contrasting use of concrete for the rectangular elements and a finishing of cobblestones on the curved elements.
