The War Memorial Centre commemorates those who have served in the various conflicts in which Australia has been involved. The centre was originally erected in memory of the fallen of both World Wars.
Plaques have been placed on the pillars of the entrance gate and arch at the side of the centre and commemorate those who served in World War Two and later conflicts. Two ANZAC Centenary plaques have also been placed at the gateway.
Funding was received in 2018 for the refurbishment of the Centre including the War Memorial Centre Gateway.
