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.

The garden commemorates those who have served in World War One.
On October 16 a "working bee," consisting of about about 40 residents, attended at the Walkerville Recreation Grounds and began the formation of a soldiers' memorial garden in accordance with the plan prepared by the Government Town Planner and approved by the district council.
