War Memorial, Kilmadock Parish, Doune

Kilmadock Parish is in Stirlingshire and I believe Doune is its biggest settlement.

The obelisk style memorial on a square plinth with broader base base is prominently situated by the A 84 road between Stirling and Callander at its junction with George Street, Doune. The World War 2 Memorial pillar is to the extreme right here before the set of external stairs.
