Description
About 1m tall, an unusual memorial in cast iron. In contrast to the innovative material the style is after the neo-classical ideals of the 18th and 19th centuries, architectural in inspiration with fluted columns and relief decoration of swags, scallop shell and etc. . Erected by a William Wilkie to his wife Jane Stewart and also his own memorial. The inscription is on a greenish plaque in ceramic or enamel riveted or screwed to the main body of the memorial. It is also marked as by "Smith and Wellstood Bonnybridge Foundry" and bears a registration number. Presumably these memorials were at one time mass-produced but did not catch on.
