The cross was created to mark the 50th anniversary of VE-day. The pebbles in the cross came from Poole, Cherbourg and Germany. The inscription below the cross records that it was made by Churches Together in Poole and Groupe Interconfessional Cherbourg, "symbolising the building of peace so much needed in our day."
