Tom Edwards’ story is one we wanted to discover.

The fountain commemorates Tom Edwards who died in a union riot in 1919.The riot became known as "Bloody Sunday", part of the potentially explosive ‘Battle of the Barricades’ riot on Fremantle Wharf on 4 May 1919. During the riot Edwards was mortally wounded by a police baton and died 3 days later giving the union its first martyr.




The ‘Proclamation Tree’ planted on the day WA became a state, 21st October 1890.
