The fence of Anglican Church commemorates those from the congregation who died in service or were killed in action in World War Two.

A rock fence, complete with wrought-iron panels and gates, at St  Paul`s Church of England, Euroa, will be dedicated by the Bishop of Geelong (Rt. Rev. J. D. McKie) tomorrow at 3 p.m.  The fence has a frontage of 290 feet to the Hume Highwy and is a memorial to men of the parish who gave their lives in World War 11. The money was raised by the ladles' guild. The rock was a gift, and was won by the men of the parish. The project was designed and supervised by a parishioner. 
Age (Melbourne), 12 September 1953.
