Flaming Urn Monument

3-stage monument, approximately 3.5m high. It consists of a large classical urn of reconstituted stone with flaming finial and square base. This is placed upon a cylindrical C19 pedestal base of similar stone and with moulded necking; swept volutes to the base. This itself sits on a plain drum base of rendered red brick. The monument is centrally placed within a raised circular platform with decorative slate and cobble pavement; plain iron railings, open to the NE side where there are clustered end piers with surmounting decorative iron urns. There is a short modern extension to the railings to the N (quarry-facing) side. A further terrace extends in front of the circular platform and is stepped down from it. This has a cobbled pavement as before with, set into the centre, a stone dedication plaque inscribed: 'This Flaming Urn, raised on the ashes of their home by Clough and Amabel Williams-Ellis, celebrates the rebuilding of Plas Brondanw Dec.10th 1953 two years from its burning and the names of those to whom it owes its restoration, vis - Wm Davies, Twm Davies, Owen Edwards, Harry Pike, Hugh Owen, Rbt M.
