Hand carved Welsh slate headstone

Martin Cook has recently installed this beautiful hand carved Welsh slate headstone.

The memorial was designed to include lettering on the front and back of the headstone.  Martin hand carved the daffodils on the head of the memorial.  All the carving on the Welsh slate headstone was done by hand with hammer and chisel in the tradition method.

Martin Cook Studio produces beautiful individually designed and deeply hand carved memorials for churchyards and cemeteries all around the UK.
