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 Memorial Park Scheme proposed by Norseman sub-branch R.S.L. to cost nearly £300 in the initial stages was agreed to by the Dundas Road Board at their monthly meeting. The garden scheme will comprise memorial tree planting, gravel walks, lawns and a band rotunda. The site is a reserve strip in the centre of main road approach from Kalgoorlie, near the police station and post office.
