The 48th Highlanders had crossed the Lamone River on 10 December 1944 after several battalions from 2 brigades had been repulsed. The battalion continued in the Lamone River, Senio River area, pushing the Germans back, until redeployed in mid-February to the Ravenna marshes area. Their last act, on the move from the Lamone/Senio area, was to honour those killed and buried beside the Lamone River. The southern dyke of the Lamone River is in the background.
