The framed paper honour roll commemorates who served in World War One.

In October 1953, the Honour Board recording the enlistments from the old Wellshot Station in the 1914-1918 war found a permanent place on the Ilfracombe Shire Council board room. The board was in the store of the old office at the station and when the last selections meant the passing of this famous old lease, it was sent to Longreach to Mr Tom Cory, one of the enlistees who considered that Ilfracombe was the fitting town for its preservation. The Shire Council willingly accepted the responsibility.
