Pettsy Posted 8 September , 2006 Share Posted 8 September , 2006 That's great, I have been looking for this. They have their museum in Sauchiehall Street. I popped in there in May. Pettsy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdajd Posted 9 September , 2006 Share Posted 9 September , 2006 In case you are interested here is a pic of the Cairn at High Wood for the 1/9th. There is one stone for each man killed on the attack of July 15 and the stones were all brought from Scotland from a High Wood there: This is a picture of High Wood itself taken fromthe sunken lane where the 9th deployed from on the night of July 14th: Finally here is a pic of a grave of an unknown Glasgow Highlander: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
