Comments:
Monument requires cleaning as plant growth e.g. algae growth and pollution staining the surface with dirt and affecting the monument.Some loose pointing and slight/minor cracking of stonework noticed. Paved area surrounding the monument exhibits open joints and requires remedial work. Some of the raised lettering would be more legible with cleaning. Two sets of lettering have been re-cut at some time in the past, maybe to correct an error. The four base points for the original four supporting shafts (broken off in a storm in October 1938 and not replaced) may need repointing to better weather seal these areas.
