This "Non-Specific Veteran Memorial" is on 'the back' of a concrete block, as in, the plaque is facing away from the road; and about 10 m east of the St John's Presbyterian Church. The concrete block is set on a concrete base of about 1.2 m square.
I would think that this plaque was established when the church was built in 1926.
As the Waymark for the Church details, the population of Wollomombi has basically halved in the last 40 years.
