Remembrance: A Street of Honour
Bedford Street stands as part of Brisbane’s Streets of Remembrance program, commemorating the Bedford House Cemetery in Ypres, Belgium. This World War One Commonwealth Cemetery, situated near Zillbeke Village, surrounds what was once Chateau Rosendal, a country house set within a small wooded park encircled by moats. During World War One, Commonwealth forces held this strategic area, and as the conflict progressed, the property became the site of several small cemeteries. Today, Bedford House Cemetery serves as the final resting place for 5,139 Commonwealth servicemen from the First World War, with 3,011 of these brave souls remaining unidentified. Bedford Street’s name preserves this important piece of Anzac history and honours Queensland’s connection to the Great War.
