War Memorial - Irvine, North Ayrshire, Scotland

Tandem Bond Causa Triumphat
(The good cause triumphs in the end)

To the memory of the
men of Irvine
who died in the Great War
on the field of battle
or from wounds or sickness
but who all alike
gave their lives for their country.

This mercat cross was restored in 1920
by public subscription
in token of sorrow for their loss
and of pride in their valour.

Walter Muir, Provost
Patrick Gilles, Town Clerk
