Burwood, war memorial

The Burwood war memorial arch featuring an impressive sandstone archway, is located at the entrance to Burwood Park, in the inner west suburb of Burwood. The Memorial was dedicated on 11th November 1922 and unveiled on Anzac Day 1923. We're coming up to Anzac Day on Saturday, the day that Australians remember those who served and died in wars, so I'll feature a few memorials around Sydney over the next few days.

    Thanks for reminding us in other parts of the world just how involved Australia was and is in twentieth century wars and current ones too.
