18th Brigade Memorial Park-Remembrance DrivewayPrint Page Print this page

Lemon Scented Gum trees were planted in 1993 and dedicated as the 18 Brigade Memorial Park.

The Remembrance Driveway is on the Hume and Federal Highways between Sydney and Canberra this developed out of a desire to create a living memorial of trees to those who had served in World War Two, rather than construct more monuments.
