- Maintenance History
- 5 March 2014: Although the remaining components were intact and the inscription legible, the memorial was in very poor condition. The pedestal had been placed on its side and was sinking into the ground. The base had been disturbed and only very small sections of the kerbs remained above ground. The cemetery is entered on the English Heritage Register of Parks and Gardens of Special Historic Interest. Parks and Gardens UK reference 2450.
