This memorial is dedicated to Colonel Williamson - a former owner of the Lawers Estate (about 2km east of Comrie, off the A85). When his son changed his faith, the Colonel is said to have stated that he would beggar the estate rather than leave it to him, which indeed he did. He and his wife then moved here, to adjacent Tomperron House. The monument was erected by the people of Comrie, in honour of the Colonel and his wife, on the occasion of their Diamond Anniversary.
