These two plaques are kept at the museum of the Royal Highland Fusiliers, in an area which is not open to the public.
They are situated on either side of another memorial for the Highland Light Infantry which I shall post in a separate thread.
Alec Weir, in his book "Come On Highlanders!" states that when the regimental HQ of the Glasgow Highlanders was demolished, the memorial was also demolished as it was too fragile to move. I'm not sure if these were a replacement to that original memorial, or if these were situated somewhere else.
