UKNIWM Ref: 44259
OS Map Ref: NX 979 756
Description of the memorial from UKNIWM:
CANDELABRA AND TWO STATUES PLACED IN NICHES ABOVE THE OUTSIDE OF THE ENTRANCE. DEDICATORY BRASS PLAQUE PLACED INSIDE THE CHAPEL
I had difficulty in identifying the 'candelabra' and there was no-one available to advise. There are four hanging light fittings that are a possibility and, as an alternative, two standing light fittings. All are included in the two photographs. Please let me know if you can positively identify the memorial candelabra from the photographs.

Not very clear is the red print part of the inscription on the brass plaque which reads:
THE SANCTUARY CANDELABRA
AND THE EXTERIOR STATUES |

Info received from Sean Barbour that the candelabra are the freestanding ones just visible at the bottom of the photos and not the hanging ones that I photographed. I will try and get pictures sometime.
