Summary
DescriptionAlfriston-Brookby war memorial, 2015.jpg |
English: The Alfriston Hall and war memorial in South Auckland, New Zealand
The Alfriston-Brookby First World War memorial was unveiled beside the Manurewa to Brookby Road on 25 June 1920. This plain but dignified granite obelisk listed the names of 13 local men who had given their lives during the war. In 1966 the memorial was moved to a new site in Mill Road outside the Alfriston community hall (pictured behind). The middle section and part of the base of the obelisk lists the names of the local men who made the ultimate sacrifice during the First and Second World Wars. The First World War inscription reads: 'To the everlasting memory of [silver fern] the men of Alfriston Brookby who gave their lives in the Great War 1914-1919, that we might be free.' The following men are listed: C. F. Bull (Main Body ), A.H. Fitzwilliams (Main Body ), A.R. Tebbutt (3rd Reinforcements ), A. Muir (5th Reinforcements ), A. M. Kemp (6th Reinforcements ), W.G. Embling (6th Reinforcements ), L. Birch (8th Reinforcements ), G. L. Mitchell (13th Reinforcements ), R. M. Kemp (15th Reinforcements ), H. Matchell (15th Reinforcements ), W.H. Winstone (18th Reinforcements ), K.S. Moore (19th Reinforcements ), T.J. Briddock (21st Reinforcements). After the Second World War a further three names were added ('And in the World War 1939-1945 Private P. Marx Flying Officer R.D. Gardner First Petty Officer A. E. Garland').
