The War Memorial at Bankfoot in Perth and Kinross is of the cairn type. It sits on a small hill towards the north of the village. The plaque describes it as Auchtergaven Parish and District:-

Reverse:-

Dedication, “To the memory of the Officers, NCOs and men of Auchtergaven Parish and District, 1914 -1919,” followe dby names and “Their Name Liveth Forevermore”:-

World War 2 Dedication, “World War 1939 – 1945 In Grateful Memory.” Note Ethel Torbet, Forestry Corps:-

We took a trip up to Dunkeld last November. I had previously noticed out of the corner of my eye a ruined church in the village of Bankfoot just off the A 9. This time we took the opportunity to pop into the village for a look.

It was apparently Auchtergaven and Moneydie Parish Church.

There were lots of signs warning that the area wasn’t safe to enter.

Speaking to a local we were told that the church had been reasonably intact until a few months before when sparks from a garden bonfire had drifted onto its roof and set it alight. Shame. I suppose it will have to be demolished now.
