From the Canadian War Monuments website:
The monument stands on the railway side of the main street, near the depot, on land 30 X 50 feet granted by the C.N.R. for the purpose. It is planned to build a low concrete wall about this land next year and put up concrete steps from the street.
In the matter of the war memorial, Shubenacadie has set a shining example to many larger communities.
- From local Shubenacadie paper, dated Thursday, November 16, 1921.

Like many WWI memorials the names of the local WWII dead have been added to the memorial.
