Description
Freestanding barrel-vaulted mausoleum, built c. 1900. Rendered barrel-vaulted roof, tooled limestone cross to south. Rendered walls with rectangular plaques to south elevation. Segmental-arched door opening to south elevation with sheet-iron door. Surrounded by cast-iron railings.
Appraisal
This simple mausoleum, housing the remains of the Shine family, reflects the change in architectural ethos which occurred in the early 1900s, illustrating a move towards a more restrained architectural style which forms a pleasing contrast to the ornate Victorian mausolea found elsewhere in this graveyard, such as that to the west.
