The inscription reads:- "This Memorial was erected by public subscription to the honoured memory of Beeston soldiers who lost their lives during the Boer Campaign 1899-1902. In the cause of an United Empire." Beneath is a floral design and under that the year 1903. This was presumably the year the memorial was made, as it was not unveiled until February 1904.
