Memorial grove

Incholme war memorial.

A fabricated (poured in-situ) concrete cenotaph with red gravel (local silica sands) decorative finish and plaster edging. Adjacent flagpole (recent) and protective fence. Leaded white marble plates recording that the memorial was erected by the residents of Kauroo, Incholme and Maraeweka in gratitude for service personnel killed in the Great War. Memorial was constructed by E. Williams of Oamaru - no other details.
