The Boer War Veterans Memorial Kiosk is a rectangular building with both ends semicircular in plan. The kiosk is an open structure, with an inner and outer ring of cast iron columns with Corinthian capitals. These support the red bellcast corrugated iron roof and encircling concave verandah. The roof is punctuated with three small louvred dormers to each side, and has ridge ventilators.
When opening the kiosk on 13 October 1910 the then Mayor boasted that every portion of it was the result of local industry. The iron work was made by Walton's Foundry at Charters Towers.
