The monument stands on a small, grassed triangular portion of road reserve at the corner of Eagle Farm and McBride Roads, Pinkenba.
Approximately 2.5 metres (8 ft 2 in) high, it stands within a grassed area defined by a white painted concrete curb supporting a fence of hollow metal poles linked by metal chain.
A flagstaff stands to the north within the fenced area.

The bronze memorial is supported on a plinth of cast rusticated-finish concrete blocks.
A pedestal, similar in form to the base of a truncated obelisk comprising beaten panels with a Doric column at each corner sits on top of the plinth.
It supports a square platform surmounted by a small dome.
An upright artillery shell, hung with a frail bronze wreath, projects from the dome.

The sides of the pedestal bear the memorial inscription and the names of the enlisted and fallen.
The panel to the north bears the inscription in relief lettering; the south panel contains the names of the fallen, each an individual name plate within a decorative honour scroll; the east and west panels contain the individual name plates for the enlisted.

A landscaped area incorporating trees, garden bed and park furniture is situated near the fence of the neighbouring property to the north of the monument area.
A seat, picnic table, tap and large, green metal utility box in this area are not of cultural heritage significance.
