Locality:Kincardineshire
Identified Casualties:19


Located alongside the road leading from Fettercairn to Edzell, about half a mile outside the village.
The gateway houses the Fettercairn war memorials for WW1 & WW2

Some very Germanic surnames amongst the many Canadian airmen buried here and a WW1 casualty who died of his wounds in 1940
