"In the early 1970s residents including the Glebe Society joined with the Builders Labourers Federation led by Jack Mundey to impose a Green Ban on expressways planned to carve through Glebe Annandale and Lilyfield. This plaque commemorates all the men and women who fought this battle - Leichhardt Council."
