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.

Cavendish Soldiers Memorial HallPrint Page 

The Soldiers Memorial Hall was built to commemorate those who served in World War One.
An interesting ceremony took place at Cavendish last Monday before a large gathering, when the Memorial Hall was officially opened by Mr. John McNeil, M.H.R. The hall, which was built as a memorial to the soldiers and sailors who fought in the war, is to be used as a public hall, not exclusively for soldiers, as was done in many centres. Being of brick, well ventilated and lighted, it is a decided asset to the community, the erection costing approximately £2000. Among those present were Mr. A. S. Rodgers, who addressed the gathering, and local councillors. Mr. Stanley Learmonth occupied the chair.
Horsham Times (Vic.), 19 December 1924.
