Description

The most elaborate monument in Pontycymer Cemetery. Of ashlar and rock-faced sandstone, marble and glazed tiles. The monument is set into the hillside at different levels. From cemetery lane rock-faced entrance piers with ashlar pyramidal caps and double iron gates lead to stone steps which rise to a vault of blue glazed tiles with marble entrance slab. On this stands a stone and marble monument consisting of a decorative marble kerb enclosing a tall rectangular plinth with inscription panels on each face, 2 of which are inscribed with metal lettering. These are flanked by colonnettes with capitals under a moulded pediment with floral motif; from this rises a part fluted truncated marble column. Monument also commemorated Margaret Price, sister.
