Littlehand was this memorial to the 1879 Zulu War? The reason I ask I have been down the Edinburgh Castle Esplanade, quite a few times and never came across this.

Hi all
I do believe that this is a memorial to those who fell during the 2nd Boer War and the memorial is called The Scottish Horse Monument in Edinburgh Castle esplanade. Littlehand's photo is part of this memorial.
"In memory of officers, non-commissioned officers and men killed in action and died of wounds in the South African War 1901-2 "
