It includes a bronze sculpture by Richard Reginald Goulden portraying Saint Christopher carrying the Christ Child.
The committee approached Sir George Frampton, and he introduced them to Richard Reginald Goulden as a promising sculptor.
Goulden's lifesize bronze statue portrays a man standing on a rock, carrying a child on his shoulder.
An inscription around the bottom of the rock reads: TO THE COMRADES / WHO, AT DUTY'S CALL, CROSSED THE DARK WATERS TO / THE FURTHER SHORE 1914–1919.
The sculpture was unveiled by the Governor of the Bank of England Montagu Norman in a prominent position in the Bank's garden, in an open internal courtyard, at a short ceremony at 4pm on 11 November 1921, at which it was dedicated by the Archdeacon of London Ernest Holmes, with two bandsmen from the Grenadier Guards playing the Last Post and Reveille.
Rather than commissioning a new monument, modest elements were added to the existing memorial by Alexander Scott: set into the paving before the sculpture is a circular raised bronze plaque about 3 ft (0.91 m) in diameter, inscribed with a wreath around the words: TO THE / MEMORY / OF THOSE WHO / CROSSED THE / SAME WATERS / 1939–1945.
