Details The memorial stands outside Stakeford and Bomarsund War Memorial Hall (opened 1922, not listed). It takes the form of a tall granite column standing in front of a panel. The column is raised on a small plinth, square on plan. At the top of the column a small wreath, suspended from the abacus, is carved in low relief. The commemorated names are listed below on the column shaft. The principal dedicatory inscription is recorded to the front face of the plinth, reading IN MEMORY/ OF THOSE/ WHO FELL IN/ THE GREAT WAR/ 1914-1919. Low flanking panels with curved tops each bear a small granite tablet recording the commemorated Second World War names.
