Comments:
A condition survey was carried out by Eagle Class at Bromet Primary for the Heritage Schools Programme on 13th November 2018. Although the class agreed that the overall condition is fair, they felt that some tidying up was needed. In particular: Some of the lettering is missing and needs to be replaced. The surrounding wall has some loose stones which are a trip hazard. There is moss on the paving surrounding the memorial and on the memorial itself and there are weeds at the base of the memorial. Pollution from car exhausts is a problem.
