It looks like the memorial inside the church which we've got on the forum here may possibly count as a civic as well as a church memorial?

I'm not quite sure what the situation is but according to the Scotsman of 4th September 1922 the memorials inside and outside the church (with the same names) are part of the same memorial which also includes a three-light stained glass window all unviled at the same time by the Duchess of Atholl in front of a combined service of Establisted and United Free congregations.

Regards

Adam
