The Ballarat Boer War Memorial, on Stuart Street, was erected in 1906. The memorial consists of a bronze statue featuring two soldiers mounted on horseback, on a stone pedestal. It lists the names of the two hundred and thirty-eight fallen ‘Victorians Who Died for the Empire’ during the Boer War.
Bravery and mateship are beautifully captured in the memorial. Sculptor James White’s work is taken straight from the battleground. - Sculptor(s):White, James
