In 1919, the citizens of Dropmore and surrounding districts erected a ten-foot high, white marble needle-stone memorial dedicated to the local war dead of the First World War. An image of a beaver chewing on a sapling is located above the inscription. It was unveiled on May 24, 1919, by Mrs. Neville.

The cenotaph was restored in the late 1990s and again in 2021.

The Winnipegosis Cenotaph was erected in 1935 under the leadership of Angus Hay, a Veteran of the First World War. He brought in a stone mason and members of the Legion did the rest of the work.

Angus joined the Canadian Expeditionary Force with the Royal Canadian Dragoons, fought three and a half years, but was invalided to Canada in the spring of 1918. While in Deer Lodge Military Hospital, Winnipeg, he was part of the executive that formed the Great War Veterans, later the British Empire Service League, and later the Royal Canadian Legion. In 1929, he moved with his family to Winnipegosis and in 1930 he organized the first British Empire Service League in Winnipegosis.
