About the memorial: A white marble tablet with curved top and rebated sides. The inscription was in mixed styles of upright lettering coloured black. It was originally in the Methodist Church (formerly the Zion Primitive Methodist Church until around 1932), which was closed and demolished in 1983 to 1984. At that stage the tablet was moved to near the Centre of the Memorial gardens and was photographed there in 1991. However at a check visit in 2004 it was nowhere to be seen. The Memorial garden itself is WMO/215268.
