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.

Moreton Bay Fig
Ficus macrophylla
Planted in memory of
Dipen Kumar Mitra
1931 - 2014
Trustee of the Andrews Foundation
A long and happy association with the National Trust of Australia (Victoria) and Rippon Lea Estate.
This Moreton Bay Fig tree was planted thanks to the generosity of
the Rippon Lea Endowment Fund, a part of the Andrews Foundation.
During 2014 and 2015, the Foundation funded extensive tree works at the estate,
and this was made possible by Dipen Mitra and his colleagues.
