I've watched it being created over a fairly long period of time and I thought it was going to be a memorial in relation to the railway which used to run across what is now the Allan Park Footbridge, bringing stone to build Redford Barracks on Colinton Road - but I've just looked for it online and it is a Memorial Cairn to 5 airmen ( 4 RAF and 1 USAAC) who were killed when their Vickers Wellington X3707 crashed at Craiglockhart View (Edinburgh) on 14th December, 1942 I'll look forward to taking another picture after it is unveiled (3pm on Sunday 11th November 2012). http://www.craiglockhart.btck.co.uk/LocalNews/MemorialCairn
