The Wallace War Memorial was erected in 1959, in memory of all those who have served their country and those who gave the supreme sacrifice in the First and Second World Wars. The Memorial was designed by Comrade Charles McCoull. The Monument is of Wallace sandstone with panels of granite. The cutting and erecting of the stone were done by local contractors, Gordon Dewar and Roy Flynn. Each year on the eve of June 30th, Canada Day events begin at the Cenotaph with the Nations Prayer, Wreath laying and Parade to the Community Centre. Involved are, Legion Branches from Pugwash, Tatamagouche and Wallace; RCMP members; Wallace Fire Department; Boy Scouts and Girl Guides associations. This is followed by entertainment, refreshments and fire works. There is an annual Remembrance Day Service held at the Monument on the 11th hour. The Service is attended by, Seaside Branch Royal Canadian Legion No. 104 , RCMP, Fire Departments, Boy Scouts and Girl Guides, also a large number of local citizens.

The Truro Cenotaph was unveiled by His Honor Lieutenant Governor Tory on September 26, 1926, to honour the soldiers who fought in the First World War. At the time, the memorial was called Memorial to the Fallen Soldiers. Thousands of citizens from Truro and Colchester County attended the parade and ceremony. Stationed at the four corners of the base of the cenotaph were soldiers representing four different branches of service. Sergeant Intcliff, Infantry; Petty Officer Lundy, Navy; Private Henderson, Highlanders; and Private. Davidson, Cavalry. At a cost of $10,000, the memorial has since been taken care of by the Legion and towns people. 

The cenotaph consists of a large square center stele with black granite plaques on the four sides. Each corner of the stele has an Ionic column supporting an overhanging roof. The cenotaph stands on a broad one foot tall granite base, which is atop a broader, stone base. On top of the cenotaph is a statue of a soldier in full battle gear from the First World War with his hands crossed, resting on the butt end of his rifle.

In the 1970's the names of the men who died in the Second World War and Korean War were added to the cenotaph. Names from Afghanistan were added later.
