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 memorial is located in the Culloden area. The 500 ton, 170 foot-long steamship Princess Louise was never put into service. She had just been built at Maccan. A total of eight men were lost.
