The war memorials of Surrey take many forms, the most common being a cross, either Latin or Celtic in design, mounted on a plinth which has suitable inscriptions listing the names of the local war dead. Generally, World War II casualties have been added to the original memorial though in a few cases, such as at Ashford and Guildford, there is a separate memorial. A few display a lantern instead of a cross. The other main group of memorials consists of plinth mounted statues of either allegorical figures or of soldiers.

In addition to the conventional memorials, funds raised for memorials were often used to endow community facilities such as village halls or gardens of remembrance.

Indoor memorials, such as those found in churches, generally consist of either metal or stone plaques inscribed with the names of the dead.
