Alton

 

Location:  Caledon, Peel Region  N 43 51.292  W 080 04.416
In front of the Legion, on the south side of 1267 Queen Street W, around 500 metres east of Mississauga Road.

Erected in 1989 by the Town of Caledon.  This memorial sits proudly in front of the Lt Algie V. C. Royal Canadian Legion, Branch 449.  It was dedicated to those who lost their lives in war, by the Families and Citizens of the Town of Caledon.  Alton is a picturesque village, well worth the visit and a great place to walk on a summer day.
