Erected in 1921, the granite Bulla War Memorial is of local social, historical, and architectural significance for its memorialisation of local residents' participation in the Great War (World War I), in particular those gave their lives, and as an excellent example of the simple First World War memorials erected in many rural communities. The simple obelisk memorial is also a fine example of the design and constructional skill of the stonemason, F. Hallett.

Because of its siting in front of the former Bulla Shire Hall and near the relocated St. Mary's Anglican Church, the memorial is also a prime contributor to the immediate streetscape, and enhances the significance of this precinct.
