Description

Red brick wall with white marble insets - relocated from the Alstonville Showgrounds Memorial Gates which were erected in 1924

The plaques from the gates were damaged and it was hoped that they could have been returned to the memorial gates that are at the showgrounds. However they were retained in place and new black granite plaques have been placed over the top.
