This is the monument at Tourville, a few kilometers SW of Caen.
It sits above the valley of the River Odon with the Scottish Lion looking across to Hill 112 which was the final objective of Operation Epsom. The French authorities have thoughtfully named the minor road across the Odon "The Scottish Corridor"
