I thought that we had a thread previously on War Memorials in Post Offices but I cannot find it. The Post Office ran a project in late 2008 to record all Post Office War Memorials. There is a searcheable database at http://catalogue.postalheritage.org.uk/dserve/bpma_docs/memorials.html but unfortunately you need to search on a town name. I will write to the Postal Museum and Archive to see if they can let me have a list of those in (or formerly in) Scotland.
You can of course search in UKNIWM for post and scotland and it will also come up with a list but many of those on the Post Office list are not yet listed by UKNIWM.
