Narre Warren Memorial Gates
These memorial gates, erected in 1923 at the Narre Warren Sports Ground, were first relocated near to here in 1983 as a Rotary Club of Narre Warren Community Service Project. They were re-erected on this site in 2003 by the City of Casey in conjunction with the Rotary Club of Narre Warren and the Berwick RSL.
The gates were rededicated at a ceremony held here on 15 April 2003.
