Comments:
Memorial is generally in good condition but there are concerns about pointing on stonework and the flagged surfaces of the surrounding platform. Much of it is loose and very soft and sandy. Remedial works should be planned before there is much mre deterioration. Metalwork is sound but flaking paint and rust mean that this requires attention too. There are also minor pot-holes developing in the surrounding tarmac at the front of the memorial that may become tripping hazards.
