About the memorial: Red Granite Tablet with black inscribed lettering noting the assassination of the Regent of Scotland in the infancy of King James VI. A somewhat dubious claim to being a war memorial but worth including out of interest. Lennox was assassinated by the allies of Mary Queen of Scots three years after the her abdication and flight in 1568, so the civil war which ousted her was over. Read more in the comments.
