The Memorial Rock commemorates residents of the Wollombi District, who died in service or were killed in action, as well as those who served in conflicts in which Australia has been involved.

In 2001, an honour roll of those from the district who had served in conflicts from 1864 to 2001 was added to the memorial rock. An additional plaque containing further names of those who served in World War Two was added in 2004.
