On 11 November 1985, Brooke was among 16 First World War poets commemorated on a slate monument unveiled in [[Poets' Corner]] in [[Westminster Abbey]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://net.lib.byu.edu/english/wwi/poets/poets.html |title=Poets |publisher=Net.lib.byu.edu |access-date=24 March 2012}}</ref> The inscription on the stone was taken from [[Wilfred Owen]]'s "Preface" to his poems and reads: "My subject is War, and the pity of War.

The wooden cross that marked Brooke's grave on Skyros, which was painted and carved with his name, was removed when a permanent memorial was made there. His mother, Mary Ruth Brooke, had the cross brought to Rugby, to the family plot at Clifton Road Cemetery. Because of erosion in the open air, it was removed from the cemetery in 2008 and replaced by a more permanent marker. The Skyros cross is now at Rugby School with the memorials of other Old Rugbeians.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.rugbyadvertiser.co.uk/news/features/help-to-design-memorial-to-rupert-brooke-1-1482332 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20130619224455/http://www.rugbyadvertiser.co.uk/news/features/help-to-design-memorial-to-rupert-brooke-1-1482332 |url-status=dead |archive-date=19 June 2013 |title=Help to design memorial to Rupert Brooke }}</ref>
