Tomb of Frederick Tillson, Harrow Road, Kensal Green Cemetery W10 - Kensington and Chelsea
Gothic Revival monument dating from circa 1870, consisting of a canopied tomb of Portland stone, marble and sandstone over a raised, moulded base. The monument is in very poor condition with subsidence on the north elevation, deterioration of stonework, widening of joints, corrosion of iron, and loss of finials. A comprehensive condition survey was produced in 2013, funded by Historic England. This monument has been prioritised for conservation and major conservation works are due to commence in 2020, funded by Historic England and the General Cemetery Company.
