Tomb of the Earl of Galloway, Harrow Road, Kensal Green Cemetery W10 - Kensington and Chelsea

Large neoclassical chest tomb by JB Papworth dating from 1838. There is damage to the kerb stone, widening of joints, invasive plant growth causing extensive disruption and some collapse on the east face. A comprehensive condition survey was produced in 2013, funded by Historic England. Urgent works are required to this monument to halt further extensive damage from plant growth. While this monument has been prioritised for conservation, no sources of funding have been identified.
