    A polished grey granite headstone on top of a rough cast, grey granite plinth. The headstone is slightly broader at the base and narrows about 20 cm upwards. At the top, it opens to the same size as the bottom. The top of the memorial shoulders to a small flat section which then raises into a semicircular section, it then shoulders again to a triangular section up to the top of the memorial. There is a faint unknown design underneath the top of the memorial. The inscription is engraved and painted black.
