The memorial is in the form of an obelisk, but with three sides. On the upper part, the compasses and square are flanked by a saw and a hammer; the symbol below them is harder to make out, but is probably a crown. See Image for the whole structure. Many of the stones in the kirkyard bear similar symbols; compare Image
