This is the Parish Church in Ballater and in front of it is the Town's war memorial but as far as I noticed I could only find one plaque for the church located in the front entrance area of the church together with another war memorial plaque that has a notification saying " Roll of Honour , United Free Church , Ballater "

This looks like a CWGC typo. Ardhuncart Lodge is at Mossat in Aberdeenshire. _________________ Jim
