Plaque at the Argyll & Sutherland Highlanders memorial well

"As you sit here by this well and ponder And your mind it starts to wander Maybe to an age that has passed in time Of Brave men that wore The Thin Red Line And should you just stop and stay a while Having walked a winding country mile As the mist rolls in over the heather and glen And you hear the far off voices of the Highland men As you stoop to drink this water sweet Can you hear the sound of marching feet One hundred years ago this year T was Argylls that built this well here So now of the water you have took your fill And as you make to leave this lonely hill Remember those as you onward journey The Argylls and their famous Glengarry Jim Coyle 2015".
