I think that Hess memorial is a replacement for the original (plain) stone one, which was destroyed by Anti-Nazi League members live on a news programme about 10-15 years ago. The original one was just a sandstone block on Eaglesham muir, and lay prone.
It deserved to be replaced as a historical footnote, but it was never a totem for neo-Nazis. Having said that, this one is well over the top........... [img]graemlins/no.gif[/img]
