Undiscovered Scotland

The imposing and poignant 5.2m high Commando Memorial near Spean Bridge. Sculpted by Scott Sutherland, it was unveiled in 1952 as a memorial to the commandos; whose wartime basic training centre had been at nearby Achnacarry Castle.

@UndisScot @fionaorkneynews It’s a sobering memorial and the location really makes you think about war time sacrifices.
