Memorials and monuments Queen's Park holds a number of monuments and war memorials to commemorate events and/or individuals. Most of them were erected during the late 19th- to early 20th century, although there are several memorials that were erected in the late-20th and early 21st century. Monuments at the park come in a variety of forms, including a number of full-length statues of persons. Several monuments are also located adjacent to Queen's Park. The first monument erected at Queen's Park was the Canadian Volunteer Memorial. Unveiled at the park in 1870, it is the second oldest monument in Toronto. Sculpted by Robert Reid, the monument was dedicated to Toronto residents that fought during the Battle of Ridgeway. A second war memorial erected at Queen's Park was in 1895, the North-West Rebellion Monument. The monument commemorated members of the Canadian Militia and the North-West Mounted Police that fought during the conflict. The monument features a tall allegorical figure of peace holding an olive spring in one hand, and a sword in her belt. The statue was cast in bronze and is placed atop a white granite base. Iron cannonballs are placed on the corners of the plinth, with the names of battles and war dead listed on the memorial. The memorial was sculpted by Walter Seymour Allward, and was the first publicly commissioned work he had completed. Another plaque was later added to the back of the memorial, commemorating a reunion of the conflict's veterans at the site in 1935. Near the northern apex of Queen's Park is the 48th Highlanders Regimental Memorial, erected in 1923. The memorial was designed by two architects, Eric Haldenby and Alwan Mathers and features a high white granite shaft, with four niches at its top and an open dome as its capstone. The north side of the monument features an inscription that reads "swords of sacrifice" on the monument's bas-relief, with a list of engagements that the regiment was involved in during the Second Boer War listed
