This monument is a large granite stone block set on a square brickwork base. It is located in Central Park, Armidale. There is one plaque attached to the stone and one to the brickwork in the front of the stone.  

On 9 February 2003, a severe storm cancelled the procession to the monument for the dedication. It was later redesigned and rededicated on 12 February 2012.
