Virtual
War Memorial
Australia

Originally was located at the corner of Main Road and Bridge Street. It originally commemorated those who died in service or were killed in action during World War One, and the names of those who died in World War Two were added at a later date.

The memorial was moved from its original site to the Eltham RSL in the 1960s, but with the closure of the RSL in 2010, it was moved again to its present location.
