The 51st (Highland) Division Memorial at Beaumont-Hamel commemorates the soldiers of the 51st (Highland) Division killed during World War I.

The memorial is located near Y Ravine in Beaumont-Hamel Memorial Park. This position had been the scene of the Division's first major victory on 13 November 1916 during the closing stage of the Battle of the Somme.
