Other

The Tobermory Cenotaph was erected in 1920 as a memorial to honour those who fought in the First World War. It consists of three slabs, the center slab being the original memorial.

In 1958, the Legion took on the responsibility of the Tobermory Cenotaph. The two outer slabs were added in 1984 and list the names of those who fought and died in the Second World War and Korean War. The addition was undertaken by Royal Canadian Legion Branch 290 President John Adams and the Monument Committee with a dedication taking place on September 30, 1984.

In 2012, the cenotaph was restored and moved back to prevent weather damage in winter.
