The memorial is in the form of a churchyard preaching cross. An octagonal stepped base supports a square plinth which becomes octagonal at the top. From this rises a crucifix, the cross with Christ and the octagonal shaft all in one. On the plinth are inscribed the names of the Fallen in both World Wars.
