Memorial hospital, Hastings, 1928

There were few utilitarian First World War memorials because these were seen as an affront to the ideals for which the soldiers had died. A notable exception was the Hawke's Bay Fallen Soldiers' Memorial Hospital in Hastings, shown here at its opening on Anzac Day (25 April) 1928.
