Royal Artillery Boer War Memorial, War memorial near Admiralty Arch, London, United Kingdom
The Royal Artillery Boer War Memorial features a bronze winged figure of Peace holding an olive branch above a horse representing War on a Portland stone base.
The memorial pays tribute to 1,083 Royal Artillery soldiers who lost their lives during the Second Boer War between 1899 and 1902 in South Africa.
Bronze reliefs on the memorial depict specific war scenes alongside the Royal Artillery motto UBIQUE, demonstrating the military traditions of British forces.
The memorial stands on the south side of The Mall, at the junction with Horse Guards Road, accessible through five granite steps from street level.
The unveiling ceremony in 1910 used an electric impulse from St Paul's Cathedral to simultaneously drop the flags covering the memorial during a service.
