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.
Soldiers` Memorial Gardens Print Page 
The Soldiers` Memorial Gardens were originally established to commemorate those who served in World War One. During World War One, Port Elliot was a venue for soldiers on recreation. The gardens were established as a community project for soldiers on leave. The memorial trees were planted after the war as a tribute to the local soldier’s contribution and includes a tree planted to fallen New Zealand soldiers.
Trees have now been planted in the garden to commemorate those who have served in other conflicts in which Australia has been involved. 24 bronze plaques commemorating the fallen soldiers were placed in the garden in May 2012.
