The honour roll commemorates 270 District soldiers who served in World War One.

On the 6th December 1919, the Rosewood Shire Honour Board was unveiled by the Chairman of the Rosewood Shire Council, Councillor H Dutney. 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.
