UKNIWM Ref no. 5702
The memorial tablet and stained glass windows in the Forfar Town and County Hall are dedicated to those who gave their lives in the two world wars.
Unfortunately I couldn't get access to photograph the windows.

Within the Town Hall, at the foot of the staircase on the ground floor, the names of the Great War fallen are printed in 9 panels surrounded by a wooden frame. Along the top it reads "LEST WE FORGET" whilst along the botton "SO THESE PASSED ON";

I tried to photograph the names without success. They will be replicated on the Roll of Honour posted here;
