A fine war memorial at Dornoch, Sutherland, Scotland. Also beautifully illuminated at night. The well-detailed statue depicts a Scottish Soldier of the Seaforth Highlanders (5th Battalion) of the Great War. The regiment recruited in the area.

 

The plynth below carries the lines:

 

"On Fame's eternal camping ground their silent tents are spread,

And Glory guards with Solemn round the Bivouac of the Dead."
