A Son of the Rock

Drumnadrochit lies near the mouth of Glen Urquhart between where the Rivers Coiltie and Enrick debouch into an arm of Loch Ness. Its War Memorial lies on the south side of the main road as it runs along the northern part of the arm.

Here’s a close-up:-

This is one of the rare War Memorials that have a woman listed on them. Subaltern Catherine Tolmie, from World War 2. ATS is short for the Auxiliary Territorial Service, the women’s branch of the army during that war.

Drumnadrochit village itself is Nessie central. There is a “Nessieland” attraction and a Loch Ness Exhibition. I didn’t bother going into either.
