The Didsbury Cenotaph constructed in the summer of 1994 in memory of all who have given their lives in the service of their country.
This cenotaph is four sided that tapers up and flattens on the top where a small cannon is place on top, this maybe vintage WWII. It is made of varying size bricks and is about 8 feet.
