A memorial in a spectacular spot - on a clear day the memorial is framed by Mt Hutt in the background. Unfortunately for me the weather was not welcoming. There are only 5 names on the memorial which clearly reminds us how important is was to New Zealand in the post war years to remember those who lost their lives in World War One. Memorials like Windwhistle - Glenroy seemingly in the middle of nowhere help us all to remember the human sacrifice made.
Auckland Museum has a photo of memorial taken by renowned war photographer Tim Page.
