Notes: 

This free-standing tomb is roughly square in section with a wide bevel around its top and stands on a base. Deeply Inc'd. Ins. on two long bevelled edges in black capitals. At one end there is the broken shaft of a solid disk-headed cross which was smashed in 1984 and is now missing. The stone is otherwise in good condition. According to the Vestry Minute Books for 3rd March (1874) "The Select Vestry gave their consent to the plan and proposed inscription of [the] tombstone to be erected by Mr. De Marylski over his late brother's grave, provided that the form of the cross be changed to that of the old Irish cross - the sum to be paid £5.
