点评:Walking along the Great Glen Way on the south bank of the River Ness you will come to a beautifully kept park/gardens next to the river. You'll probably notice the magnificent war memorial as you approach.
This is Cavell Gardens, names after Nurse Edith Louise Cavell from Norfolk she was born during the latter pary of the nineteenth century on 4th December 1865. In 1907 She was appointed first matron of the Berkendael Medical Institute in Brussels .
During the WWI she was charged with assisting 130 persons to escape from Belgium.
In August 1915 she was court-martialled, condemned to death and shot on 12th October 1915.
Her final courageous words were,
"This I would say, standing as I do in view of
God and eternity,
I realise that patriotism is not enough
I must have no hatred or bitterness towards anyone."
The memorial was Erected In Memory her in 2015 on the one hundredth anniversary of her death.
Even though the gardens are near the busy river and hotels they have a serene atmosphere as you wander around.
There is also a magnificent red sandstone war memorial in the centre of the gardens in memory to those who also gave the ultimate sacrifice in two world wars and conflicts that followed.
The War Memorial at Cavell Gardens, on Ness Bank, Inverness, stands 33 feet high, the Celtic cross was designed by John Hinton Gall. It was unveiled on 16 December 1922 in front of a crowd of 5000.

翻译:沿着尼斯河南岸的大峡谷步道漫步,您会来到河畔一座维护得非常漂亮的公园/花园。走近时,您很可能会注意到那座雄伟的战争纪念碑。
这里是卡维尔花园,以诺福克郡的护士伊迪丝·路易丝·卡维尔的名字命名。她出生于19世纪末,即1865年12月4日。1907年,她被任命为布鲁塞尔伯肯达尔医学院的首任院长。
第一次世界大战期间,她负责协助130人逃离比利时。
1915年8月,她被军事法庭审判,判处死刑,并于1915年10月12日被枪决。
她临终前勇敢地说道:
“我想说,当我站在上帝和永恒面前时,
我意识到,爱国主义是不够的。
我不能对任何人怀有仇恨或怨恨。”
这座纪念碑于2015年为纪念她逝世一百周年而落成。
尽管花园毗邻繁忙的河流和酒店,但漫步其中却能感受到宁静祥和的氛围。
花园中央还矗立着一座宏伟的红砂岩战争纪念碑,缅怀在两次世界大战及随后的冲突中为国捐躯的烈士。
位于因弗内斯尼斯河岸的卡维尔花园战争纪念碑高33英尺,其凯尔特十字架由约翰·欣顿·加尔设计。纪念碑于1922年12月16日在5000名观众面前揭幕。
