Unveiled in 1924 at Paisley Cross this World War 1 Monument is topped by a bronze statue named “The Spirit Of The Crusades” which portrays soldiers from the western front accompanied by a medieval knight on horseback. Its inscription reads ... “To the glorious memory of the 1,953 men of Paisley who gave their lives in the Great War.” Well worth a proper look & to pay your respects if you're in town.
