MAY L G – PM – Growth spreading across inscription on the private memorial looks to have reduced slightly over winter. Letter A in surname can now be made out but the Y is still illegible (noted that HR advice 10/01/2022 was that the inscription is down for cleaning). Grave top and kerb sides tidied up. Note that this is the second grave potentially impacted by the church's development plans for the churchyard (plans on hold due to lack of funding - this advised by recent, separate email).
