- PBPGYorkshire, UK5,973 contributionsA spectacular location for this memorial to 23rd New Zealand prime minister and the first Labour Prime Minister. The site is at Bastion point and has a mini park on the landward side of the monument.Written November 20, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- platypus150Melbourne, Australia27,233 contributionsJust outside the Devonport Library is the memorial featuring a soldier sometimes referred to as "untidy" and noted for its informality and realism.

- TURNERONapier, New Zealand42 contributionsWe have visited this memorial quite a few times over the years. Quite small but always well kept. A quiet place for reflection. Couldn’t get to the memorial his time around due to covid19, but will return here once the pandemic is all over. Lest we forget.Written April 26, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

It could be due to the recent cyclone - which has taken out some of the nature tail that connects to the cemetery.Written March 19, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
