Unveiled in 1922, the Pitlochry War Memorial is located in the Scottish town of Pitlochry Perth and Kinross. A Category C listed structure, it stands just in front of the town's Memorial Garden (formerly known as the Pitlochry Institute Park). It initially commemorated 81 men and one woman (a nurse) of Moulin parish who died in World War I.[1] The sixteen who died in World War II action were later added.[2]
The site and memorial were gifts of Colonel and Mrs C. A. J. Butter of Cluniemore.[2]
