Kingussie War Memorial

Good morning from train. Next station Kingussie! Very poor signal I look forward to reading post later
Ha ha! Nothing to read, I’m afraid, just the pictures.
Hey Magicfingers,
Doesn’t need words, what a stunningly beautiful evocative memorial.
Daisy
See next post……
Great to see a memorial in such a nice location. So many have ended up surrounded as the land around them has increased in value.
Interesting to note that with the exception of the two Ross’s, those with identical surnames are separated on the memorial. I presume that is to denote that they were not immediate family, but would be interested to know if that’s actually correct.
Aha! The wanderer returns. And a good spot – sounds a decent explanation.
Ten days away and it’s me taken another ten to get caught up with everything again! I do sometimes wonder why I bother lol. Ive still got a couple of your newer posts to read, which I very much look forward to.
Enjoy Flanders
I did!
See, my brain is still seriously lagging! I need sleep, lots and lots of sleep hahaha
I thought as the train headed north this morning and I was specifically looking for the war memorial I might have spotted it???
I reckon it’s obscured by trees. If not, you could probably see it from around where the track crosses the road; it is 500 feet north of the station.
