Description:This Stafford Borough memorial consists of a soldier standing on the top of a pedestal which lists names of soldiers lost in the war. The memorial is engraved with the words, "The Great Task Accomplished, 1914-1918".
The Borough War Memorial was unveiled in 1922 in memory of the Stafford men who lost their lives in the First World War. The statue of a soldier originally faced the railway station, from which many of the soldiers had departed to fight. After the building of the new Crown Courts the soldier was turned to face St. Mary's Church.
