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.

Avenel War MemorialPrint Page 
A monument commemorates those who served in World Wars One and Two.
The Avenel War Memorial was unveiled by Colonel Langley on the 4th December 1920 originally to commemorate those who had served in World War One. The 'digger'' memorial originally stood at the head of Bank Street facing Queen Street but was moved to its present position.
Other plaques have been added to the monument to commemorate World War Two.
