Dear Monument Australia visitors, we are a self-funded, non-profit organisation, dedicated to recording monuments throughout Australia. Over time the costs of maintaining this website have risen substantially (in fact they are probably larger than those of many companies who exist for profit). In the past we have borne all the costs associated with maintaining the website but we are now having difficulties in paying the monthly expenses.
If Monument Australia is useful to you, please make a donation to keep this historical and educational resource available. Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Ballan & District Soldiers Memorial Bush Nursing Hospital PlaquesPrint Page 
Plaques commemorate the Ballan and District Soldiers Memorial Bush Nursing Hospital and Hostel which was opened in 1966 and dedicated to all servicemen who paid the supreme sacrifice in times of conflict.
The original Memorial Bush Nursing Hospital has been demolished and replaced with a new hospital building. The plaques from the original building were found in a storage shed at the hospital.
