Ballater War Memorial
Posted in Trips, War Memorials at 12:00 on 18 September 2025
Since we were close to Ballater after leaving Corgarff and I had seen its War Memorial on television when the late Queen’s funeral procession passed through the town I thought I should take the chance to photograph it myself.
It’s a granite cross rising from a wall where the names are inscribed, standing in front of the church on Bridge Street. Unfortunately there was a tractor right behind it that day:-
Dedication and names:-
There was what I assumed was a Great War Centenary bench nearby:-

Bridge Street, Ballater, showing War Memorial:- Ballater, Bridge Street looking towards bridge. The shop on the corner sold very good ice cream:- Unfortunately I didn’t get to a vantage point to see the bridge itself but I was able to photograph the River Dee from the bridge. Looking east:- Opposite view, looking west:-
