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.
Richie BenaudPrint Page 

The statue commemorates Australian test cricketer and broadcaster, Richie Benaud (1930-2015).
One of Australia's finest all-rounders, he captained NSW and Australia from 1958 to 1963. In 1963 he became the first player in the history of the game to achieve the Test double of 2,000 runs and 200 wickets. Later, he became a leading cricket broadcaster and writer. Richie Benaud died in April 2015.
