Eltham Gateway, Gateway to Eltham Avenue of Honour (1916-1917) Over 100 trees were planted dedicated to the eternal memory of soldiers from the Sltham district who served in WW1Tomorrow's history documented todayeltham, jim connor collection, main road, avenue of honour, eltham gateway

Walking or driving up Main Road, you enter Eltham’s Avenue of Honour, with its rows of plane trees, each commemorating the death of a soldier sent to fight in World War 1. 115 trees were first planted on 21st September 1917 beginning at “the flat” to the intersection of Pitt Street. Tree guards and copper name plates were later added. In the ‘20s and ‘30s too many branches were broken off by carriers whipping their horses up the steep slope. In the 1950s many of the original trees were removed for road widening and new plane trees were planted in their place. In June 2015 during the Anzac Centenary, Nillumbik Shire Council dedicated the new Avenue of Honour in the Eltham Gateway. New markers commemorate local soldiers.
