Ballarat Rotunda, Victoria, Australia

[Ballarat Memorial] The inscription on the Ballarat Rotunda reads

        MEMORIAL to
  BANDSMEN of S.S. TITANIC

The memorial can be found in the old mining town of Ballarat, Victoria, Australia. There were three memorials to the bandsmen erected in Australia. They were in Broken Hill, Kadina, near Adelaide in Sth. Australia, and Ballarat. Broken Hill mined zinc Ore, lead and silver; Kadina and Ballarat mined copper and gold respectively. The picture below shows the ornate Titanic wind vane on top of the rotunda. Many thanks to Andrew Rogers for taking these pictures and supplying the background information.
