Comments:
Visited on 7 February, 2020. No trace of the chalk to highlight the names. The names on the west (front) and south faces are legible but with lychen encroaching on the front. The north face is virtually obliterated due dark coloured lychen. The lettering is sound beneath, although not very deep, and primarily requires the stone to be cleaned.
