Not listed on UKNIWM

Located in The Crichton grounds, Dumfries at OS Map Ref NX 982 744.

I had several attempts to find this tree and eventually found it near the garage entrance to the Crichton.

I understand that due to family wishes, his name will not be added to the Dumfries memorial.

The memorial is an oak tree with plaque.
