30. Cenotaph and Memorial Gates

Sussex & Bazaar Sts

This structure was erected in 1922 with funds obtained by public subscription as a memorial to the fallen of the First World War. The memorial includes five Italian Carrara marble statues which portray the Army, Navy, Airforce and the Nursing profession, and Nike, the Winged Figure of Victory standing above them. The memorial gates and plaques were cast by the local Croydon Foundry.
