Marrickville, town hall and war memorial

Marrickville Town Hall is located on the corner of Marrickville Road and Petersham Road, in the inner west suburb of Marrickville. This heritage listed building was designed by Lindsay Thompson and completed in 1922 in the Federation Free Classical architectural style. The Marrickville War Memorial was erected in 1919 to honour the men of Marrickville who gave their lives in World War 1. It features a bronze sculpture of a winged angel with wreath and sword held high, known as Winged Victory, on a large granite pillar set on a rectangular granite base.
