Title: "Beautiful War Memorial - unveiled at St. Annes-on-Sea in presence of Mr. Stephen Walsh".

M/S of Walsh and senior army officers walking slowly past a crowd of people. L/S of a tall and modernist memorial with a statue on top of a woman with her arms outstretched, tilt down to show a Union Jack covering the base of the statue, a large crowd watch as the flag drops from the memorial.

M/S, looking over the heads of the crowd, of Walsh standing between a man in mayoral chains and a man in a clerical wig, they are standing in silence beneath the memorial. M/S of the mayor laying a large wreath with the help of two men on the memorial. M/S of a group of children - mainly little girls - walking past carrying bouquets of flowers. M/S of children laying flowers at the base of the memorial.
