About the memorial: Bell tower, in Gothic revival by Hoare & Wheeler, built 1923-31 as a Memorial to Campbell dead of First World War and previous wars In 1914 the 10th Duke of Argyll, Niall Diarmid Campbell, became the Honorary Colonel of the 8th Battalion of The Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders. When the First World War ended he decided that there should be a fitting memorial to commemorate the Clan Campbell dead. To this end he commissioned architects Hoare and Wheeler to design the Bell Tower, the original idea being to link the new tower to the church.
