Port Sorell Defence Memorial

Posted on
The Port Sorell Defence Memorial is a collaborative community initiative to honour service personal from all areas of the Defence Force and to remember all past and present wars and conflicts. The Memorial consists of a pathway which has dedicated brickwork to both service personnel and community members from the local area. A stainless steel monument, which depicts a returned soldier giving a poppy to a small child in an act of peace, sits on a polished concrete plinth. A lone pine has been planted at the rear of the memorial. The modern, maritime style of the memorial reflects the vibrancy of a town with a growing population and the towns coastal setting.
