This memorial is a large Trachyte stone pillar mounted on three concrete steps, surmounted by a white marble figure depicting an Australian soldier with rifle. The names of the 57 men from the district are inscribed around three sides of the monument in white ink. The left and right sides of the pillar list the 46 men that served and returned home whilst the front side lists the 11 men who died on active service. Inscribed on the base of the pillar is the following dedication "Erected by the residents of Kendall and District in Grateful remembrance of their brave men who went to fight for God, King & Country in the Great War 1914-1919". Following the First World War, a War Memorial Committee was formed and discussion took place concerning a war memorial for the Kendall area. On 9 May 1923 The Sydney Mail reported that the Kendall people were divided as to whether a memorial hall should be erected as the war memorial for the district. A vote was later taken where it was agreed to erect a stone memorial. The Kendall War Memorial was unveiled on Anzac Day (25 April) 1923. The Northern Champion newspaper published a detailed account of the unveiling. A religious service was held in the School of Arts. Mr T. M. Breckenbridge, President of the War Memorial Committee, welcomed the residents and Mr A. G. Smith, secretary of the Committee, also spoke. Lieutenant Cochran of the Salvation Army urged the commemoration of Anzac Day as a hallowed day. Mr Dobson stated that it was important to honour the men who served. Canon Ritchie then unveiled the memorial. After his speech, the gathering bowed in silence and Mr Hiram Duck then sounded the Last Post.
