Dear Monument Australia visitors, we are a self-funded, non-profit organisation, dedicated to recording monuments throughout Australia. Over time the costs of maintaining this website have risen substantially (in fact they are probably larger than those of many companies who exist for profit). In the past we have borne all the costs associated with maintaining the website but we are now having difficulties in paying the monthly expenses.
If Monument Australia is useful to you, please make a donation to keep this historical and educational resource available. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Brighton War MemorialPrint Page 
The War Memorial commemorates those who served in the various conflicts in which Australia has been involved. It was originally constructed to commemorate those who served in World War One but has been augmented to commemorate other conflicts.
The precinct consists of a sandstone obelisk, and behind it is a sandstone wall which lists the names of those commemorated.
