A regimental war memorial, re-sited with alterations in the late twentieth century. There are three ogee-headed bronze panels, the larger central one with inscription and regimental crest and with a finial in the form of the regimental badge. The outer panels have cusped heads and relief figures of soldiers. Below the panels is an inscribed plinth, and above them a traceried crest. On either side, a late twentieth-century wall of granite setts.
