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.

A memorial erected on the front beach, Sorrento, in honour of the men who enlisted from the Sorrento and Portsea district, and in memory of the fallen, will be unveiled by Captain Bruce, M.H.R., on Sunday, December 11, at 3 o'clock.
