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 Rose Garden was planted in memory of Des Rudd, a life member of the Harden-Murrumburrah Horticultural Society.
Des Rudd was instrumental in the design and creation of the gardens in 1965 and contributed greatly through the Horticultural Club to its ongoing maintenance. He was killed in a car accident in 2006.
