The memorial was unveiled on 16th October 1921 by Major-General Sir William Lambton and dedicated by the Bishop of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich. It takes the form of a large granite pillar on a stepped base, topped by an urn and lists the names of 218 men from the town who fell during World War I as well as 10 civilians and 80 servicemen who lost their lives during World War II.
