A memorial to the missing of the Merchant Navy and Fishing Fleet. The memorial, raised on a platform above street level, is in the form of a temple of three bays. Each bay is formed of piers and columns in the long side walls, flanking the central open space. The piers forming the bays have external round arch curved niches and are clad in rectangular panels laid in a stretcher bond pattern and giving the appearance of rusticated walling. These panels bear the names of the missing, arranged by vessel. The entablature with cornice is of the Doric order. The low-pitched roof with side parapets and capped with a low, flat, circular dome has pedimented gable ends over the entrance arches to the east and west ends. Security spikes are fixed in the wall openings to the southern elevation.
