This memorial is one of two obelisk monuments situated in the Octagon at the centre of the south Taranaki township of Manaia. It records the names of 71 men of the Armed Constabulary and the Patea Field Force who died in 1868–69. During this period, these colonial forces undertook operations against Tītokowaru in south Taranaki and Te Kooti at his East Coast stronghold of Ngatapa.
