About the memorial: An addition to the lettering on a stone on a family grave. The memorial is dilapidated but is presumed to have originally been a cross on a three-stepped base although the cross (or some other feature) is missing and the base has been displaced. The oblong sandstone base has three steps with bevelled tops but the top two steps have been dislodged from the lower step which seems to be in its original position. The 6 o'clock and 9 o'clock faces of the steps bear inlaid inscriptions in mixed styles of mainly capital lettering. The memorial is accompanied by oblong sandstone kerbs which are partly buried. It is about 35 metres west of the old chapels at the centre of the cemetery, and north of the main path.

Some war memorials are not eligible for funding from War Memorials Trust.
Further information is provided on our helpsheet ‘Definition of a war memorial for funding purposes’.

As a conservation charity which gives grants War Memorials Trust can support repair and conservation works that follow best conservation practice. Grants are awarded from funds raised by the charity so money available is limited and is therefore focused on eligible war memorials.

War Memorials Trust’s Definition of a war memorial for funding purposes helpsheet explains which war memorials are eligible and ineligible for funding.

As a charity, War Memorials Trust relies on voluntary donations and every contribution, no matter how large or small, makes a really big difference to our work. Your donation will help protect and conserve war memorials for future generations so please support War Memorials Trust’s work.
