Description

A single-storey gabled rectangular mausoleum of galletted basalt rubble construction with slightly battered walls. Entrance faces west in a pedimented gable. West gable contains a rectangular opening down two steps, recessed between broad rectangular projecting nib walls; flat arch of rough basalt voussoirs; plain iron barred gate now permanently wedged open. Deep sandstone slabs over nib walls, surmounted by an open triangular pedimented and bracketed classical aedicule containing a white marble plaque inscribed 'Erected by Thomas L. Stewart to the memory of his beloved son Thomas Ludford Stewart who departed this life 5th January 1815'. Pediment and shoulders of gable surmounted by three sandstone urns. Side walls blank. Roof of Bangor blue slates in diminishing courses, with tiled ridge, supported on a plain projecting eaves course in each side wall. Some splitting to eaves course on north side. Rear gable contains a slightly recessed rectangular sandstone panel perforated by a cross with extended foot, to the main wall, with a triangular pediment above, containing a small square sandstone panel perforated by a quatrefoil. Sandstone platband, at eaves course level, and sandstone coping to pediment. SETTING: The building stands within a walled graveyard (HB20/13/020D) which is located in a very rural area. It is sited approximately on an east to west axis with two other mausolea (HB20/13/020B and C), which both lie to its east. It is approached by, and faces directly onto, a concrete path leading directly from the entrance to the graveyard; grass around sides and rear. Directly opposite it on the other side of the path is a small open enclosure which also has galletting to the exterior of its low plinth walls.
