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.

Soldiers MemorialPrint Page 
The Tarcowie Hall was built in 1909 and, after World War One, it was decided to build two rooms and a porch on the front of the original Hall as a Soldiers Memorial. The Memorial rooms were dedicated by Colonel Parkes D.S.O on 1 December 1922, the Foundation Stone having been laid by Mr. Daniel Butterick, who had three of his six sons in the 1st A.I.F. One was killed in action in France and another died of illness as a consequence of the War.
