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.

20 years of Bushland Acquisitions
On 12 September 2010, Lord Mayor Campbell Newman led the Brisbane community on celebrating the 20th anniversary of Brisbane City Council's Bushland Acquisition program.
This site, now part of Mt Coot-tha Forest, was the first property purchased through the program, initiated by former Lord Mayor, Sallyanne Atkinson,
In 20 years, the Bushland Preservation Levy has protected more than 2750ha of Brisbane's most significant bushland for the benefite of our faune and flore, and future generations.
