By the north wall of the church of St Gabriel. To the fallen of the parish who died in two world wars.
Aptly planted with Rosemary. Throughout history, mourners would sometimes carry sprigs of rosemary at funerals and toss it into the coffin before it was buried to ensure that the deceased would not be forgotten.
