The War Memorial for KIntore, Aberdeenshire, is in the form of an arch which forms the entrance to the Parish Church at the junction of School Road with Kingsfield Road.
81 men who lost their lives in the First World War are commemorated on the memorial, together with 19 who lost their lives in the Second World War. Photographs of the panels showing all the names are on the website for Kintore. However, Allan MacIver's photo of the memorial shows the First World War commemorations, and images of the respective panels are shown below.
