Royal Marines Memorial, War memorial in Westminster, England.
The Royal Marines Memorial presents two bronze figures, with one marine standing guard over a wounded comrade on a Portland limestone base.
Sculptor Adrian Jones created this memorial in 1903 to honor Royal Marines who died during conflicts in South Africa and China from 1899 to 1900.
The memorial serves as a central gathering point for commemorative ceremonies and stands as a national monument for the Royal Marines since 2000.
Located at the intersection of The Mall and Spring Gardens, the memorial provides visitors with detailed bronze reliefs depicting military engagements.
The monument was moved from its original location in 1940 due to the construction of the Admiralty Citadel and reinstalled on The Mall in 1948.
