A First World War memorial on a roadside reserve in Aro Valley, Wellington, at the junction of Aro Street, Raroa Road and Holloway Road. It stands in a grove of pōhutukawa trees, and it can be hard to spot unless you know where to look. It sometimes has graffiti, but the lettering on all four faces is still easy to read.
A plaque says the memorial was erected in 1920 by the Mitchelltown Welcome Home Association and Friends, in memory of the boys of Mitchelltown School and the area who served abroad in the Great War from 1914 to 1919. The memorial lists 86 names, and 19 of those men are recorded as killed. The area around Holloway Road was once called Mitchelltown, after a local family who farmed and felled trees on the hillsides, and later became known as Taitville. The project's co-ordinator can be contacted for more information about the memorial and the people named on it.
