Clogher War Memorial is located at the junction of the Omagh and Aughnacloy roads, at the eastern end of the town.
It was erected to perpetuate the memory of some thirty-six men from the town and district who paid the supreme sacrifice in the Great War.
The memorial takes the form of a column of Irish granite standing 16ft. (5.1m) high on a base of three steps and tapered at the top. It is situated on the eastern end of the town, at the junction of the Omagh and Aughnacloy roads. The ground was granted by the Clogher Diocesan Board of Education.
The inscription is ; -
“In memory of the men of this district whose names are here inscribed who died in the great war, 1914-1918.
Erected by their fellow-countrymen and women.
Greater love hath no man than this: that a man should lay down his life for his friends.”
