Doiran Memorial

The memorial design by Commission architect Robert Lorimer features four square piers, each bearing name panels, placed to form a square around a central pylon that is some 40 feet (12 m) high, bearing the dedicatory inscriptions and two carved lions and stone wreaths.

[2] The cost of the memorial was largely paid for by subscriptions raised from the officers and men who served in the campaign.

Macdonogh further stated that: It was pleasant [...] to recall the many friendships formed in the days of the war and the esteem and affection in which [British troops] held the people and the Army of the fair land of Greece in which they fought and where so many were sleeping their last sleep.The unveiling was followed by a British Marine band playing the hymn Abide with Me, buglers playing the Last Post, and a two-minute silence followed by the laying of wreaths by many representatives including Evzones soldiers laying a wreath on behalf of the President of Greece.

"[1] In the years that followed, the memorial was visited by several pilgrimages, such as those tours (arranged by the St Barnabas Society) to the Salonika and Gallipoli battlefields.

[6] The 97th anniversary of the end of the Salonika Campaign was marked on 27 September 2015 in a service "attended by members of the Greek Army, the Bulgarian Ministry of Defence and British military attachés".
