Front Inscription

The Ghost of Gallipoli

1915 - 2015

Plaque:

This memorial is dedicated to all from Ararat & District who enlisted in the Great War 1914 - 1918.

They shall not grow old
As we that are left grow old
Age shall not weary them
Nor the years condemn
At the going down of the sun
And in the morning
We will remember them
Lest we forget
