There cannot be many headstones using the beam engine symbol used by the Northern Mill Engine Society. George Cooper had a great interest in stationary steam and his extensive photographic collection is with the National Monuments Record in Swindon. He had seen and photographed the vast majority of surviving in situ stationary steam from the 1970s onwards. His parents thought the headstone was a fitting memorial to his interest in steam.
