St Martin's Church Second World War Memorial Gates, Mullumbimby Middle Image Image Image Image 0 / 0 - Prev Next Description / Background The memorial gates consist of decorative wrought iron gates with red brick pillars. Two plaques bearing a dedication and honour roll for seven men who fell in the Second World War are attached to the pillars. The memorial was dedicated by the Bishop of Grafton, Right Reverend C. E. Storrs at the Anzac Service held in St. Martin's Church on 25 April 1949. The Northern Star on 19 April 1945, reported the Parochial Council of St Martin's Church of England had decided to erect a brick fence with memorial gates "to perpetuate the memory of Church of England men of the district who served in the present war." The gates were to be erected in the Stuart Street frontage of the church. Reverend Storrs and Mr Louis Williams of Melbourne, the Diocesan Architect, visited Mullumbimby in May 1946 to consider the design of the gates and fence. In July 1946 the Mullumbimby parishioners received a report the plans were complete. The church called tenders for the work on 2 October 1946. It was in July 1947 Canon Rowe reported plans were in hand for the erection of the memorial.
