Unfortunately access to the hall could not be gained on my visit. I could see some form of plaque on the wall immediately behind the main doors and I thought this may be a list of names.

The following link provides more information about the history of the hall. The names of the fallen have been taken from the churches at Monikie and Newbigging so the plaque in the hall may not contain names as first thought;

Pat Anderson informed me there IS a commemorative plaque within the hall but contains no names.

The names are inside Monikie Church.
