THE Church of Scotland, Pollokshields, stands on the corner of Shields Road and Albert Drive Glasgow. The memorial is a tall granite Anglo-Saxon style cross reminiscent of the type found in Northumberland and Cumbria with tapering shaft set on an octagonal plinth, standing outside the church on the Shields Road side. The design of the cross appears to have been based on that of Caedmon's Cross at Whitby, there are intricate patterns carved on the side and the shaft is divided into seperate panels each of which contains a relief carving of a bilbical scene of character.
The names of the dead are carved on the steps of the plinth.
