Made from portland stone (as, for example, is The Cenotaph in London's Whitehall), it features Britannia with her right hand resting on a sheathed sword.
The memorial has been updated with plaques commemorating the dead from later wars.

Bridgend War Memorial
AM spending a week in Bridgend, which is a town in South Wales about halfway between Cardiff and Swansea.
Bridgend War Memorial was built to commemorate the Great War, which is dated as 1914 - 1918 (rather than 1919).
Made from portland stone (as, for example, is The Cenotaph in London's Whitehall), it features Britannia with her right hand resting on a sheathed sword.
The memorial has been updated with plaques commemorating the dead from later wars.
