The Port Hawkesbury Cenotaph was reconstructed and moved in 1976, in memory of War Veterans from The First and Second World Wars, and Korea. The memorial was refurbished in 2007. A History of the Cenotaph: A memorial to fallen comrades was erected in Port Hawkesbury in the early thirties by Mr. A.J. Langley Senior who, as Mayor at the time, was unable to finance it through the town and subsequently financed the project personally. He dedicated it to those who served in The First World War and those who came from the Port Hawkesbury area. A second memorial, The Port Hawkesbury Cenotaph, was erected by the Town following The Second World War and was inscribed to Veterans from both wars. It was situated on the left of the entrance to the Town Hall on Granville Street. When the Town Hall was abandoned in 1976 the Cenotaph was moved by the Town to its present site on Reeves Street, facing the Royal Canadian Legion, Branch 43. Apart from the annual Remembrance Day service on November 11th, the Cenotaph is central to several other functions including flag days, wartime anniversary events, and in May 1999 it played a role in the 44th Provincial Biennial Convention at which Lt. Gov. James Kinley presided and took the salute from several hundred marching veterans. The 1999 Remembrance Day service will long be remembered when low temperatures, high winds and hail necessitated an abrupt end to activities due to the threat of frostbite to school band members and others present. It was also a milestone when the 2-minute silence was re-introduced.
