Memorial gates to the Seddonville Domain - Utopia Road, about 1 km NW of hotel.

This is a lonely monument as Seddonville is now a much smaller settlement than it used to be. The domain was reserved in early days (files in Archives NZ) and the gates were added later. The domain is now overgrown, and the memorial is almost overlooked.
