Grave Description: Cross raised up on a plinth
Grave Condition Description: Cross has broken at base and is leaning against the plinth. Note: In May 2008 when we transcribed this part of the cemetery this grave was too overgrown with ivy to read any of the inscription. In January 2009, because it became so top heavy, it fell over in high winds and the cross snapped at the base. In Spring 2009 the grave was cleared by a group of Community Service Volunteers.
