About the memorial: The Mytholmroyd war memorial is in the form of a Portland stone figure of a soldier standing on top of a rock shaped stone surmounted on a square stone plinth and is grade II listed. On the rock is a scroll in relief with an incised dedication to the fallen of World War I. Underneath this on the square plinth is a World War II brass plaque. The original head of the soldier was removed in 2000. This was replaced by a stylised head to illustrate that it was not the original. In addition to this the rifle was stolen in the past and had been replaced in fibreglass.
