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.

This plaque donated by Mr. A. J. "Snow" Crowell is a tribute to all the blacksmiths and farriers who made shoes and fitted them to the heavy horses in preparation for the hard roads travelled while carting grain to the ports during harvest.
