Devonvale Mills War Memorial

The Devonvale Mills War Memorial is a poignant tribute to the men who worked in Devonvale Mills and fought in the Second World War, but sadly did not return. The memorial stands on the west side of the Moss Road between the Sterling Furniture retail warehouse (formerly the Devonvale Paper Mill) and Sterling Mills retail outlet village.The memorial features a sculpture of Victoria at its centrepiece, with memorial walls flanking the central sculpture like wings. The sculpture depicts Victoria kneeling and holding a sword wrapped in a laurel wreath. This is a testament to the town’s rich history and a reminder of the sacrifices made during the war.Next to the monument is an information stand about the men as well as the history of the mills.
