Description

A simple small stone tablet on a pediment of darker granite ashlar. Like many rural Scottish WW1 memorials the length of the list of names in relation to the tiny size of the settlement is very striking. It commemorates the dead of World War I. It has a classic cornice below which are carved, in the centre of the memorial, the entwined letters B & C. It was unveiled 23 November 1919.
