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.

Dangarsleigh Memorial ShelterPrint Page 
The shelter commemorates those who served in World War One.
The shelter was created in 1997 after realising that the identities and lives of the men on the Dangarsleigh War Memorial were largely unknown. The construction of the shelter was made possible by a grant from the Department of Veteran’s Affairs, Council and donations from the ANZAC services held at the Monument each year. Local woman Judy Grieve researched the stories of the men whose names are on the war memorial.
The Dangarsleigh War Memorial Shelter was found destroyed by fire on the morning of December 23, 2011. The remains of a burnt out car which had been driven under the structure were close by. The Dangarsleigh Local Area Committee rebuilt the shelter.
