The memorial arch and park commemorate S. W. B. Hardcastle, a well known Hawthorne resident, who was a former head teacher of the Valley State School. A drinking fountain was unveiled in the park in his memory by the Hawthorne Progress Association on the 15th June 1929. In 1939 the area around the Hawthorne ferry terminal was generally known as Hawthorne Ferry Park, but the local residents applied to the Brisbane City Council to have it named in memory of S.W.B. Hardcastle, a well-known and highly regarded Hawthorne resident who had lived near the park. It was suggested that if Council supplied the stone, the residents would pay for a memorial in the form of an entrance arch. An area of over an acre was converted from freehold land for this purpose and a stone and metal arch bearing the name of the park was erected at its entrance.
