It was designed by the then Mayor of Bexhill, Alderman George Herbert Gray in 1919 and dedicated by the Roman Catholic Bishop William Keatinge.

It is a Gothic shrine with an altar and bronze crucifix within, protected by a dual pitch tiled roof. At the apex of the roof is a carved relief of a pelican feeding her young. Dedicatory plaques are inset in the left and right walls commemorating the names of 102 servicemen lost in the First World War.

Whilst St Mary Magdalene has been listed since 1976 and the memorial could be construed as being part of the curtilage of the listed church, it richly deserves its own listed status.

On the reverse is a Latin inscription dedicated to the Belgian refugees of WWI.
