Heritage listing

Details The memorial stands at the junction of Port Clarence Road and West Street. It takes the form of a tall obelisk in red granite, rising from the corniced top of a large pedestal. The pedestal’s base stands on a three-stepped base. The foot of the obelisk is defined by a fillet, below which on the front face a wreath is carved in relief. The principal dedicatory inscription to the front face of the pedestal reads HAVERTON HILL AND PORT CLARENCE/ WAR MEMORIAL./ IN PROUD AND LOVING MEMORY/ OF THE MEN OF THIS DISTRICT/ WHO FELL/ IN THE GREAT WAR 1914-1919./ (NAMES). The Second World War dedication to the east face of the pedestal reads IN PROUD AND LOVING MEMORY/ OF THE MEN AND WOMEN/ OF THIS DISTRICT WHO FELL IN/ WORLD WAR II./ (NAMES). These inscriptions are on bronze plaques fixed to the granite. To the front of the pedestal’s base a small shield records the six First World War names added at a later date. This List entry has been amended to add sources for War Memorials Online and the War Memorials Register.
