The Design

Wood decking, riverbank steel walls and backlit inscriptions are central to the memorial. Quotes bring together different voices about honour, hope and wartime sacrifice.

Features

Benches, walkways, trees and an overlook are among the City’s listed features. The wooden deck was designed around an existing heritage tree, connecting the memorial’s seating and planting areas.
