Designed by architect Edwin Lutyens, the memorial features a large stone pedestal topped with a flagged coffin, surrounded by four lions and adorned with flags and wreaths. The Cenotaph is the site of the annual National Service of Remembrance, held on Remembrance Sunday, which honors the sacrifices of British servicemen and women.
