Cobargo and District Soldiers Memorial

The Cobargo and District Soldiers Memorial is a granite-block monument, consisting of a wall, with a taller pillar in the centre that acts as a focal point. The pillar is faced with a granite plaque, which is inscribed with the names of those who served in the First World War. To either side of the pillar, are brass plaques listing the names of those who served in the Second World War, Korea, and Vietnam. To the side of these, are smaller plaques inscribed with quotations. Attached to the far left of the memorial is the Dignam's Creek First World War Roll of Honor. A flagpole is positioned behind the memorial.

A committee made up of local women met in May 1933 to revive plans for a war memorial that had lapsed for a number of years. The original committee of local men was set up in 1919. Funds collected locally by the first committee were returned, and then given to the 1933 committee, along with interest earned in the 14-year interim. 

Plans to construct the monument were accepted by the committee in July 1934. Mr D. B. Sheperdson, a monumental architect from Sydney, designed the memorial and oversaw its construction. It was unveiled by the State Governor on 16 November 1935.
