The Bradleys Head Naval Memorial is located at the end of Bradleys Head in the north shore suburb of Mosman. The HMAS Sydney I memorial mast was removed following her decommissioning in 1928. It commemorates the “Sydney-Emden” action, the first engagement at sea of a Royal Australian Navy ship during the First World War on 9 November 1914 at Keeling Island near Cocos Island. The memorial also honours those who served in the Royal Australian Navy and all ships lost in service. A bridge links to Bradleys Head Lighthouse in Sydney Harbour.
