War memorial erected c1920 to commemorate those men of Llanrhyddlad who lost their lives in the first world war. The memorial replaced a central gate-pier dividing two footgates for the school. The memorial pedestal was originally surmounted by ball finial on a shaped base, but after the second world war, it was altered by the insertion of a new plaque, and the addition of the carved figure of a solder wearing a beret, his hands resting on a Lee Enfield rifle.
Sandstone ashlar pedestal with tooled margins, polished granite plaque and white marble sculpted figure. The pedestal has a stepped moulded plinth, tooled margins, and stepped projecting cornice. The shaped plaque is of black polished granite with white lettered inscription, recording the names of the dead of both world wars, with the names of their homes, and the place and date of their deaths.
Listed for special historic interest as a memorial commemorating the dead in both world wars, and as a good example of memorial sculpture, particularly for the incorporation of a World War II figure.
