Photographs by Colin Rowlands who also told us,
"The base which you see on the photos used to support a stone cross bearing the inscription “In Loving Memory”, but that has disappeared.  As far as I know the grave never had a stone surround.   After David Maurice died in 1915 his brother William (my father) went into the army in 1916 and happily he survived."
