The Scottish Horse War Memorial (Afrikaans: Scottish Horse-gedenkteken) is a monument in Kensington, Johannesburg, South Africa. It was built on Caledonia Hill, between Somerset Road on the north side, Katoomba Street on the east, Highland Rd on the south, and Good Hope Street on the west.
The monument was designed by William Tait-Conner and unveiled on 19 May 1904. It consists of a Celtic cross embossed on a granite-lined pedestal. The Memorial can be reached by steps from Highland Rd and is a popular lookout with a view of the surrounding suburbs and beyond them of the Hillbrow Tower downtown.[1]
