Little Munden war memorial stands opposite Home Farm. The obelisk is around 1.5metres high and constructed of red granite. The polished stone stands on a plinth and is located on the site of a previous memorial.
The memorial was erected in 2004 to replace a war memorial bus shelter, erected in the 1950's as a Second World War memorial, which was destroyed by arson. A grant of £200 supported the project.
A service of dedication took place on Saturday 16th May 2004 with The Bishop of Hertford the Rt Rev Christopher Foster dedicating the memorial.
