I can't find anything about a St George's United Free Church in Montrose so don't know where this memorial could be in 2011.
From "The Scotsman" 14th February 1921
MONTROSE
A war memorial for the men who fell in the war was unveiled in St George's United Free Church Montrose, by the Rev. John Dow, M.A. |

One of many amalgamated churches in Montrose over the years. All of which now form part of St Andrews & Old. Whether the memorials from each congregation rest in the old parish church building remains to be seen. |

St Andrews church on the corner of George Street and Baltic Street was a union of two churches which were themselves unions - St George's and Trinity (whose building became St Andrews) and St Luke's and St John's.
I am sure that there were a number of memorial plates and plaques around the walls of St Andrews including war memorials. I don't know from which of the constituent churches they came nor what has happened to them now. The former St Andrew's building belongs to a nursery/ playgroup,
