Woodpecker Gun
John Street, Corner of Edward Street, Coonabarabran, New South Wales, Australia, 2357
The Woodpecker Gun is a War Memorial to those who served in the Second World War. The Japanese Machine Gun, which is at the front of the Memorial Swimming Pool, adjacent to the Coonabarabran Visitor Information Centre, was captured on August 3, 1945, during combat in New Guinea and is a free attraction to visit.
There is an information board at the gun site with details of the capture and a listing of the Coonabarabran men and women who served in World War Two and the Vietnam War.
After exploring this attraction, stroll just 110 meters south to the Coonabarabran Visitor Centre, where you can gather information about other attractions in the Warrumbungle Region.
