The sandstone obelisk is the Frodsham war memorial and comprises a podium of 3 steps followed by a square plinth inscribed with World War I and II dedications and the names of the dead. There then follows the tapered, pyramid tipped column. The dedications read as follows:
To the honour and
grateful remembrance of
the men of Frodsham whose
names are here recorded
and who gave their lives in the
service of their country during
the Great War 1914 – 1918
We remember also with
sorrow and with pride
those who followed after
and trod the self same path
of duty and of sacrifice
1939 - 1945
