Twickenham War Memorial, War memorial and statue in Radnor Gardens, London Borough of Richmond upon Thames, United Kingdom.
The Twickenham War Memorial consists of a life-size bronze soldier in service dress and greatcoat, standing on a Portland stone plinth with bronze plaques.
Built in 1921 following a design competition, the memorial initially honored World War I casualties and later included names from World War II.
The memorial features three bronze relief sculptures depicting different military personnel, including airmen, nurses, and naval officers on the plinth sides.
Located in a public garden setting, the Grade II* listed memorial remains accessible throughout the year for visitors to pay their respects.
The statue portrays an uncommon representation of a jubilant soldier waving his cap while holding a rifle, contrasting with traditional solemn memorial designs.
