The Memorial records the names of local officers and men who died in the two world wars, 1914-1918 and 1939 to 1945. On a granite pedestal, the bronze statue represents an angel of peace placing a wreath on the head of a wounded soldier in the battlefield. The small Memorial, to the lower right of the picture, records the names of the local UDR soldiers who were killed during "the Troubles" in Northern Ireland.
