Note (5 October 2015)
The First World War Audit project noted a possible hospital at Kirkton (of Durris), recorded from a list of Auxiliary Red Cross Hospital published on a web site (http://www.scarletfinders.co.uk accessed July 2013), this was thought to be the public hall in Kirkton of Durris.
A researcher, in an email to Gordon Barclay, confitrms that the public hall was indeed the hospital and photographs that show the building in use as a hospital can be seen within the hall.
