The memorial was build in the early 1920s in honor of the Scots who fell during WWI. It was intentionally designed to mimic an ancient ruin. Additional tablets were added after WWII. The memorial is free to enjoy, and it appears to be open during regular daylight hours.

Stonehaven war memorial designed to look like a ancient Greek ruined temple. Lovely walk along paths between here and Dunnottar castle

Hiking
A good path from Stonehaven town centre to Dunottar Castle. Initially follows the old coastal road up out of the town, and then the path runs along the cliffs and coastline. Usually good underfoot with gravel, though some sections are a bit steep and can be muddy. The memorial on the hill can be visited along this route. Simplest way to return to Stonehaven is retracing the outward path, however a circular using the paths through the woods to the west is also possible.
