Lochalsh War Memorial

I missed this when I was there but the photograph below popped up on a flickr group I belong to. It was taken by Allan MacIver.

The war memorial is apparently in a lay-by near the village of Reraig just outside Kyle of Lochalsh.

It is inscribed “For King, Kin and Country, for Freedom, Truth and Justice. In affectionate and grateful remembrance,” and also with a Gaelic inscription of a Bible verse, “Gus am bris an la agus an teigh na scailean.” (Until the day breaks and the shadows fall away).
