The inscription reads.
TO HONOUR THE MEMORY OF THOSE WHO WENT FROM THE LOTHIANS AND FIFE TO SERVE IN THE WAR IN SPAIN 1936 – 1939
NOT TO A FANFARE OF TRUMPETS, NOR EVEN THE SKIRL O’ THE PIPES, NOT FOR THE OFF’R OF A SHILLING, NOR TO SEE THEIR NAMES UP IN LIGHTS.
THEIR CALL WAS A CRY OF ANGUISH, FROM THE HEARTS OF THE PEOPLE OF SPAIN. SOME PAID WITH THEIR LIVES IT IS TRUE; THEIR SACRIFICE WAS NOT IN VAIN.
ERECTED BY FRIENDS OF THE INTERNATIONAL BRIGADE ASSOCIATION.
