The memorial was unveiled in 1922 and consists of a raised platform bearing Lutyens' characteristic Stone of Remembrance next to a pylon topped by an effigy of a recumbent soldier.

A small memorial, consisting of a cast metal plaque mounted on a concrete plinth, situated in one corner of the square, commemorates four men from Southampton killed fighting in the International Brigades in the Civil War in Spain, 1936 – 1939.
