Porth War Memorial was rededicated at this site in Porth Square in 2007. The Cenotaph was originally erected in the town centre in 1928 in remembrance of the men of Porth who gave their lives during the Great War (1914-1918). The Memorial had to be relocated to make way for the Porth Relief Road Project. The Memorial seen here has some features not in the original, such as a sentry post inscribed with the names of more than 100 people who were missing from the original.
