Description

The Tomb of Sir William Randal Cremer in Hampstead Cemetery is an obelisk dating from around 1908, made of granite. It stands on a rectangular moulded base, featuring a bottom panel with a sculptured relief of a willow bough and a sword. The main shaft has inset inscribed panels, and the capital displays a high relief sculptured torch on each face, set within a laurel wreath and flanked by foliar volutes. It is topped with an ovolo cornice and a pyramidal cap.

Sir William Randal Cremer began his career as a carpenter and became a notable trade unionist and pacifist.
