The Lych Gate Memorial commemorates those connected with the Congregational Church who served in World War One. The Lych Gate was originally sited at the Congregational Church (now privately owned), in Orley Avenue, Stirling. It was restored and relocated to present site in 1984.

The lych gate was erected as a war memorial as a result of the efforts of Reverend. A. W. Gordon who was a stretcher bearer in World War One and Madge Bower and Una Cleland. The gate contains an honour roll of members of the church who served in World War One.
