The Blaenrhondda war memorial ison the West bank of the river Rhondda in a railed enclosure on Blaenrhondda Road. It takes the form of a granite obelisk on square concrete base with a two-stage plinth, there are metal panels in the sides of the base bearing the inscription in Welsh and English. Any names are as yet to be transcribed. The Welsh transcription has not been purposefully omitted but cannot be read from the photographs. This, and the names, would be welcome additions.
