On an angled, grey stone plinth is a bolted-down bronze plaque, which is in a square enclosure, of brick pavers on three sides, and the concrete kerb on the fourth. The rough-barked Dedicated Tree (an unknown species of Gum Tree) is surrounded with fine wood chips, and has a slight lean out towards the road. It is right beside a council's rubbish bin. The plaque has the following punched inscription:

IN MEMORY OF

During WORLD WAR II
1939 - 1945

Address: Memorial Avenue, Merrylands, NSW, 2160, Australia

* While there are (I believe) x 44 Dedicated Trees on Memorial Avenue, for the locals who lost their life during World War 2, I was not able to get photos of each, as I had to leave Merrylands early. *

Type of tree: Eucalyptus
