The Snake Valley District War Memorial originally commemorated those from the district who served in World War One. The memorial is situated on a three-stepped foundation and takes the form of a shrine, with the female figure of peace enclosed in a niche. A marble tablet on each outside are inscribed with the names of local soldiers.
