The 2011 Challenge, Epilogue (3)

In the afternoon I went for a little wander around Montrose. I took some photographs of some of the familiar sights which we Challengers all know from our many visits to Montrose, and yet never think to add to our Challenge photo albums.

Montrose himself, I guess, is the one who matters most to me. He fought for his King and proved himself to be one of the most able generals that Britain has ever bred. What might he not have done, had he had a few more soldiers to deploy? He did not deserve the fate he suffered, and it is as well to see him commemorated by such a fine statue. May God rest his soul!
