The imposing structure was erected by a private citizen, Mr William Cameron, in the 1930s to commemorate those who died in World War I and to provide work for the unemployed in the depression. It is considered Victoria's most significant war memorial after the Shrine. Today the reserve commemorates all those who served in wars and conflicts.
