City War Memorial, War memorial at Victoria Embankment, England.
A Portland stone triumphal arch with three openings stands 14 meters high and 18 meters wide, featuring Doric columns and wrought iron gates.
The foundation stone for the memorial was placed by Edward, Prince of Wales, on August 1, 1923, leading to its official unveiling in November 1927.
The memorial displays bronze plaques containing Marshal Foch's tribute to the Sherwood Foresters and inscriptions honoring local military contributions during both world wars.
The memorial gardens remain open to visitors throughout the year, with detailed historical information available through the Nottingham City Council information center.
The structure incorporates 70-meter-long curved stone colonnades with wrought iron railings, creating an extended commemorative space along the River Trent.
