The Honour Board contains the names of 270 district soldiers which are inscribed on metal plates. On either side is a figure of a soldier with suitable scrollings. Prior to the unveiling, a procession marched from the Shire Council Office to the railway station where the unveiling was performed. The procession was headed by the Ipswich City Vice-Regal Band and a contingent of returned soldiers under the command of Lieutenant-Colonel K. M. O'Donnell and Captain D.J.Binnie.
