Description: All the letters s in the text are back to front. The bottom few lines are obscurred by grass. The stone is loose and has been packed with other stones to try to make it more stable. The edge is a carved border of leaves. At the top there is a rectangle whose edges are defined with geometric fan designs. Inside the rectangle is a semi circle of diamonds inside which is the word here in a decorative script over a possible image of an urn.
This grave was photographed as part of a Graveyard Survey carried out with the help of volunteers in 2013.
