War Memorial in Ardross Church
On the rear wall is a poignant reminder of the sacrifice made by many Highland communities in the Great War of 1914-1918. Many of the names are those of estate workers, but also included are some Ardross men who had settled in the dominions. The men are remembered each year with a wreath of poppies on Armistice Day.
