Dorchester



Location:  Middlesex County     N 42 59.188   W 81 03.460
On the east side of Dorchester Road, at the entrance to the community centre.
 

This memorial was erected in 1966 by the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 513.  Found at the entrance to the North Dorchester Community Park, this is a busy area for all local residents.
No names are listed on the granite stele, but the major wars of the previous century are engraved and forever remembered by the community.
