I can't work out if any building originally belonging to William Devenport, if there is one, will be rescued.

In loving memory of William Augustus DEVENPORT who entered into rest April 15th 1920 aged 63 years and his beloved wife Alice Millicent who passed on May 2nd 1938 aged 82 years. Re-united.
