This memorial proudly stands in front of the former St. Andrew's Anglican Church. It was erected in 1920 to honour the members of this church that gave their lives in the Great War. The tall marble monument is topped with an elegant cross. The base has the names of those who lost their lives permanently engraved in the stone. Beside the cross stands a second smaller pillar with a brass sundial at the top and the names of those lost in World War II engraved on one side.
