    From the plaque on the memorial: This crucifix is erected to the glory of God and to the memory of Lady Alice Mary Gaisford who died at Killarney House XXV January MDCCCXCII by her loving friends and relatives. May she rest in peace. The scrolls higher up are Bible quotes.

    "The crucifix set in the archway is very impressive and the gravestone in the well tended plot would seem to suggest that" they were very wealthy.
