Beresfield Cenotaph, NSW, Australia - Non-Specific Veteran Memorials on Waymarking.com

The 3 metre tall orange-brick column is surrounded by a very low brick fence on three sides. On the top of the eastern side is the Australian Returned Services League crest, flanked by two bronze cast rifles. Below which are the words:

"LEST WE FORGET"

Below those words are four brass emblems/crests for the services, with a 'more recently placed' plaque in the middle, which reads:
