Glasgow Cathedral - Crimean War memorial

On the walls of Glasgow Cathedral are a number of memorials relating to men who died in different campaigns.
This memorial is dedicated to local men who died during the Crimean War between 1854 and 1856.
The men surved with the ninety-third Sutherland Highlanders. Their stand against the Russians on 25 October 1854 has since been referred to as The Thin Red Line.
