Lundy's Lane Battlefield Commemorative Wall 2004

In 2004, four large sculpted relief panels were installed on the exterior embankment wall of Drummond Hill Cemetery on Lundy's Lane near Drummond Road. The site of the Battle of Lundy's Lane in the War of 1812, these reliefs mark the 190th Anniversary of the battle. The chiselled limestone reliefs were produced by the Campbell Monument Company.
