"These gardens" no longer surround this monument as apparently they once did. It seems the monument has been moved as, according to , "the garden used to be on the corner where The Grove met Romford Road. Sadly it has been replaced by a hotel and restaurant".
Site: Kerrison and Grove Gardens (2 memorials)
E15, The Grove
The low stone stand holding the plaque has been added to the foot of the Kerrison monument, rather ruining its clean, Art Deco, lines.
