I can imagine it must have been a talking point amongst those based there during the war.

Where abouts is this grave located? I've not spotted it on my walks around the track and you have aroused my interest.

I couldnt read it properly as it was weather beaten, but it had a mans name on and a date which was in the 1880's. Let me know if you find it, if not I will try and be more precise. Its a strange one.
