Well this is my second post. Thanks to Spoons for the advice on how to link to images. I hope I have overcome my technical ineptitude and have managed to link to the picture.

Included should be a picture of the memorial to the men of the Forres area who served in the Second Boer War. The memorial is located in the Nelson Memorial Tower, Cluny Hill, Forres. The memorial plaque is located on the first floor of the tower.

Mike,

I have posted a picture of the Tower in the 'Individual Memorial' section; I would have photographed the Boer War memorial - when I got up the hill, it was shut!

I'm glad that it is now on the Forum!

This should be in the civic section so moving it over.

Really good photo Mike.

Capt. (Hon.) James Frederick Thurlow Cumming Bruce is also on the Black Watch Memorial in Edinburgh.
