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.

A copper tablet in honour of 41 Westminster Presbyterian Church parishioners who gave their lives in the First World War was donated by the Ladies Auxiliary of the church and unveiled on June 8, 1919. On January 30, 1920, the church at 45-49 Bloor Street East was destroyed in a fire. This tablet was thought to have been destroyed in the fire. 

In 1950, Old St. Andrew's and Westminster-Central joined as St. Andrew's United Church at the present site on Bloor Street, and the Old St. Andrew's site was sold.
