This memorial consists of a Latin cross flanked by two figures of children on a square pillar. The pillar takes the form of a tapering pier with moulded plinth and roll-moulded cornice. Above the cornice on two sides there are plain crosses under a crocket and the other sides have carved young angels bearing blank tablets. The cornice at the top of the pier bears the dates 1914, 1918, 1939 and 1945. The pier and part of the plinth carry the names of the fallen.
