HAYNES J R - PM - NO CHANGE - Darkening of the headstone makes the text difficult to read (surname problematic). Advised in 2021 that this headstone has been reported for professional cleaning. Weeding on grave top done (took 50mins due to number of small plants which if not kept down, would leave this grave in the same state as its neighbours - which was how things were at start of EOHO work).
