Grave markers in Great Yarmouth New cemetery
The 233 crosses have been removed from the graves they once marked and lined up regimentally against the cemetery wall.
The men were patients at the Royal Naval Hospital in the latter part of the 19th century and the first few years of the 20th century.
The markers take the form of a stone cross with an engraved metal plate giving basic details of name, rank, date of death and age.
The dates range from 1883 to 1906, with the ages at death ranging from 27 to 89. The most senior Naval rank is that of Vice Admiral Albert Heseltine.
As well as Royal Naval personnel the memorials include Royal Marines, Coast Guard, Merchant Service and various Indian Army regiments.
Of the 233 crosses, one has lost its plate, whilst 8 have no details other than the name.
A list of names and individual images of the crosses are available on request, and a donation to geograph.
