What a fabulous way to save very special 'memorial' trees that were set to disappear! One of the best memorials to all those brave souls who gave the ultimate sacrifice.A MUST see...

We met some people at our accommodation that put us on to this... one of the most moving tributes i have seen to the ANZACs. It's great to see the memory of these men being kept alive.

This is near Scottsdale, TASMANIA and originally a number of Trees (Planted 1918) at end of First World War, become "unsafe" and Locals engaged a "Chainsaw Carver" who cut the TREES into Soldier Statutes, depending the 7 Local Soldiers that Paid the Ultimate Sacrifice. THIS IS WORTH A VISIT AND IS NOT TO BE MISSED......The Gift Shop on scene is run by excellent Volunteers with all kinds of items with shop being a old Railway Carriage. Excellent Rest Rooms and Picnic Facilities in park. This is a credit to the Carver "Eddie FREEMAN", the local community and the Dorset Shire Council.

Fantastic memorial to those from the area who gave their lives to go to War. The chairsaw artist has really been quite creative and detailed with his work. I'm thankful to see the cypress trees, planted as the original memorials, used in this way and not just pulled out and the area left to fall into disrepair. The gardens, toilet facilities and carvings are well maintained. Well worth the detour from the Tasman Highway to have a look at.

If you've been to Australia, you might have noticed how every little town seem to have their own war memorial. This one though is the most unique I've seen so far. Definitively worth a stop if you're driving past.

Wow, we had never heard of this place, the lady at our accommodation recommended we stop by.So glad we did. This is the most amazing tribute to our ANZAC heroes, so moving, and so well done. Good on the people in this tiny town for keeping the spirit alive....a great place to stop, the lady in the gift shop/coffee shop was lovely,very helpful and friendly.

Well worth the very short detour off the main road. The carvings are very impressive and well maintained. Each has its own story and connection to the area. Very touching.

Incredible detail and expression. Be sure not to miss Simpson and his donkey which is in George Street, not far up (looking toward Bridport) from IGA supermarket, on the other side of the street

Despite the rain and cold wind we persisted and made it to Legerwood to view the carvings we had read about and seen on television. It was amazing to walk around these and absorb the detail that is etched into each of the sculptures. Each has a story that is moving and links to the history of the community. There is nothing else close by but it is certainly worth the effort to visit to marvel at the ingenuity of this community.

Legerwood is a slight detour off the main road but worth taking a few minutes to visit. There is really nothing much here BUT the carvings. You find carver, Eddie Freeman's work pop up all over this part of Tasmania. It's quite distinctive. The locals of Legerwood have made an effort to clean up the area near the carvings and there are toilets and a reasonable picnic stop.
