PERRY W W – CH – Minor chipping [LHS] face, middle top and [RHS] top (no change since 20/05/2021 report). Also, two new chips on face to right of cross. Some green algae but inscription legible and as cleaning done at last visit decided to leave (algae may burn off). Minor weeding. Bench still positioned approx. 1.5 metres diagonally from the front of the headstone. This check coincided with meeting new focal point for the church and discussed this along with the proposed creation of a 'Prayer Corner' immediately to the rear of this headstone (as reported recently, the development remains on hold due to lack of funding).
