was built around 1920 to commemorate those who gave their
lives during WW1. Later the names of those who sacrificed
their lives during WW2 were added and more recently, the
Gulf War.

As befits such a splendid memorial to those who sacrificed
their lives so that we could live ours in the freedoms we
enjoy today, it holds a prominent position in the heart of
Brora on the banks of the river as well as in the hearts of
the villagers. The names of the servicemen inscribed on the
memorial can be seen below.
