    The buff coloured sandstone is about the average height of a man and as broad as a rugby prop forward.
     
    The block weighing two tonnes was hewn at Grinshill quarry near Shrewsbury.
     
    A recess has been cut into it to hold a brass plaque, held in place with high security fixings.
     
    The inscription reads as follows.


    This memorial commemorates the bond that exists between the people of Bridgnorth and the former Royal Air Force Station Bridgnorth (1939-1963).

    It records the contribution to World Peace during those years of conflict, by the men and women who were trained there.
