Re: Airfield/village Memorials
Spent about 65 0f my soon to be 72 years in Carnoustie area and never noticed a memorial in the local Shanwell cemetery.It is a shoulder high stone with a plaque in remembrance of 7 members of the United Free Church who did not return from the 1914-18 war.Its part of a circular formation of graves close to the entrance.Only saw it last week cant believe I missed it.

Re: Airfield/village Memorials
