Cullen Bullen War Memorial - Cullen Bullen, NSW - Non-Specific Veteran Memorials on Waymarking.com

Cullen Bullen is a small village in rural New South Wales. It has a strong Progress Association who decided in 2008 to erect a war memorial to honour locals who served their country in times of war.

The memorial is located beside the Progress Association Hall & consists of a painted background of Lest We Forget & a soldier flanked by the Australian flag. A sandstone rock bears the words: Dedicated to all Servicemen & Servicewomen from our community who have served Our Great Country. The rock was dedicated by the Returned Services League of Australia Portland Sub Branch on 22 April 2008.

The memorial was still surrounded by wreaths & crosses of those who have since died following the ANZAC Day Memorial Service held nationally each year on 25 April.
