This memorial is dedicated to the local war dead of the First and Second World Wars. The broad bulk of the main soft grey granite form, set on several steps for greater height, is capped with a dentilled cornice, as well as various decorative relief sculptures – a maple leaf, a sword and a wreath. The names of 22 lost local men and boys are engraved on the front of the monument, while a plaque on the back adds 15 names from Second World War.
