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.
Red Cliffs War MemorialPrint Page 
The memorial was originally erected in memory of those who died in service or were killed in action during World War One.
Two walls have been erected behind the cenotaph and contain the names of over 1000 personnel from the district who served in conflicts in which Australia has been involved.
The Cenotaph was unveiled by the Minister for Health, Mr Hughes in August 1937 in memory of the fallen in World War One.
The Argus (Melbourne) 18th June 1937.
