Comments:
I have visited this in 2009, 2013, 2017 and 2022 and continue to dither about overall condition. The cross and sculpture are structurally sound. The stonework is significanly discoloured, doubtless due to being engulfed in trees. The name panels are OK, but are obviously a later addition, The brick base is in very bad condition with the mortar having disappeared altogether in some areas.
