Soldiers Memorial, Kangaroo Flat

Soldiers Memorial Park, Kangaroo FlatThe Soldiers Memorial in the Bendigo suburb of Kangaroo Flat has this lovely Art Deco style brick entrance. In a way I like the solid beam of timber bearing the text "Soldiers Memorial" and the simple crosses in the niches on each of the gate posts better than the brickwork. I think all the elements work together well as a suitable entrance to the park area containing the memorial monument.

The remainder of the park is enclosed by a fence consisting of smaller versions of the gate posts joined by a single metal rail.
