It's a shame they didn't add units to the Second World War names.

This memorial is listed as DORNOCK PARISH COLUMN and has the reference:
UKNIWM Ref: 44122.
OS Map Ref: NY240663

The memorial is on the very western extremity of Eastriggs village on the B721 and is possibly half way between Eastriggs and Dornock.
Sculpted by Beattie & Co. Carlisle
