I have found several mentions of the war memorial that stands in the street but none of either of the stained glass windows in the church, one erected in 1921 (according to a contemporary newspaper report) and one post WWII.

I don't know if the WWI window still exists but the WWII certainly does - looks lkike it was made by a competent amateur.

Wondering if anyone knows anything abou them?

Try this 2008 image of the WW1 Window from Canmore (Historic Environment Scotland), so existed 10 years ago.

This window is now WMR memorial 80492.

There are 42 names but I can't get the image sharp enough to read them all.

There is also a partial image of the WW2 window in the lobby on Canmore
