Two bronze figures – one male figure, representing a son worn out by conflict, is supported by a female figure representing the motherland, set on a rectangular plinth set in a curved wall. Carved bronze lion heads act as water fountains on either side of the central plinth. The sculpture is set within a garden of remembrance. In 2014, 100 years after the start of the First World War, Brent Stevenson of Stevenson Memorials began to lay black granite plaques in the memorial garden with the names of those who had died, starting with those who died in 1914. Each subsequent year, plaques were added with the names of those who died. Over 4,000 names are now listed. The memorial is situated within the Grade II* listed Corporation Park.
