Stone Condition:
The top of the stone is broken off and lost, and with it the names and date of death. The remaining fragment is in very good condition.
Conservation:
The stone has a spot of white paint on its face dating from before 2008, as if it was going to be painted in white and black like others in the old cemetery, but the painter changed their mind.
