The Supreme Sacrifice

In World War 1939-1945

(corner of Princes Highway and Beaconsfield-Emerald Road, Beaconsfield)

(1st plaque)

Beaconsfield Avenue of Honour 1914-1918

In 1928 Beaconsfield Progress Association applied to the Country Roads Board to plant the Avenue and funding was provided by Ada Armytage.  Black poplar trees were planted in 1929 to honour the 65 servicemen from Beaconsfield and district who served in World War1.

Metal templates were made and later found in storage, but in poor condition.

In 2014 The Beaconsfield Progress Association Inc. and Cardinia Shire Council created bronze name plaques for the servicemen with funding provided by the State Government of Victoria.

The trees can be viewed looking up the highway from Beaconsfield to Berwick.
