That memorial provokes images of a group of buckfast fuelled corner boys having a rumble with the local police and blagging one of the copper's helmets.

Not trying to be funny Mook but I feel that the language and brevity of the memorial fails to fully convey the story, the reason that it was "youths" was because most of the men in the village had been slaughtered the year before at Flodden a fact which is not apparent to those who may view the memorial but do not know the story.

I'd imagine most people who visit Hornshole know all about Flodden. Everyone in the Borders knows all about it.
