A pioneering woman who overcame prejudice as a heroic doctor and Suffragette is set to be honoured in Dumfries – a century after her death.
Dr Flora Murray, who was born in Dalton and worked at Crichton Royal Hospital in Dumfries, is a celebrated figure nationally.
She is revered for many significant achievements, including founding the Women’s Hospital Corps with her lifelong partner, Dr Louisa Garrett, and running military hospitals for both the French and British during WWI.
