Lindsay Township



Location:  Bruce County   N 45 02.661  W 081 19.843
At the corner of Lindsay Road 5 and Cherry Hill Road.

Known as Monument Corners, this rural intersection is the home of the War Memorial for Lindsay Township.  This four part memorial features the names of those who died in the two World Wars, as well those who served and have died since.  Once again, the list of heroic names carved onto these stones is too long considering the small rural population of this township.  Their sacrifice was immense, their bravery and commitment to duty, never in doubt.
