Notice:

The National Inventory of Canadian Military Memorials is a public, crowd-sourced registry that helps Canadians learn about memorials in their communities. Inclusion in the Inventory does not imply VAC ownership or authority. Responsibility for the care, management, and any changes to a memorial rests with its owning or governing organization.

This shaft is made from stone originally used in the cenotaph erected at Acadia School in 1980, dismantled in 1996 and rebuilt at this location in 1997. A lion sculpted in stone sits atop the cairn.
