The monument commemorates those who died in service or were killed in action in World Wars One and Two.
It was originally unveiled in 1920 with the names of those from World War Two added at a later date. An Australia Remembers plaque was added on ANZAC Day 1996.
A monument erected in front of the public hall at Glen Huon to the memory of three soldiers of that place who lost their lives in the great war was unveiled by the Warden of Huon (Mr.Jno. Upchurch) on Monday afternoon. The monument has taken the form of an obelisk of Victorian bluestone, with a marble tablet upon which the names are inscribed in lead beneath a symbolic device.
