Not listed on UKNIWM

Located in Greyfriars Church Dumfries at OS Map Ref GR NX 971 763

This church has not been used for worship since 2004 and is currently for sale (July 2008). The future of this and other memorials in the church is uncertain so they are very much at risk.

The memorial consists of the 2 regimental colours and a memorial plaque.

Unless I have my history wrong, these were the colours carried by the Battalion through the first world war including Gallipoli.

This is one of 3 sets of colours in the church.
