Webbs Creek, NSW from blood poisoning; the result of a thorn from an orange tree. ------ The grave is marked by a sandstone headstone and an iron picket fence/grave surround. The headstone is a semicircular topped sandstone stele with cutaway shoulders. It features an incised Fluer-de-lys motif and several finely carved scripts. The stele has been broken and now lies face down within the grave fence. The reverse side is rough-picked. The grave surround is of well executed forged iron work of a style characteristic of several burial sites in the Macdonald Valley. It features facetted finials on the corner posts, forged pickets and curlicue work and decorative hand-stamped flower or ray motifs. The surround was previously supported by additional star pickets and wire. The north side of the surround has been dislodged by grazing stock. The grave area within the surround is covered with bushrock pieces and is periodically poisoned to prevent overgrowth in order to deter entry by stock. Hawkesbury Cemetery Study (1990)
